NBP
Measurement
(NM)
Take a blood pressure measurement on
yourself or another person. See “NBP
Check” on page 167.
If you are able to complete a measurement,
the NBP check passes.
NM:x
Example: NM:p
Synchronized
Cardioversion
(SC)
Using an ECG simulator and defibrillator
analyzer, perform the “Synchronized
Cardioversion Test” on page 170.
If all checks pass, and all data within limits:
• Sync markers appear on the display, at the
peak or on the falling side of the QRS
• Shock delivered on next QRS
• Shock delivered 6 J ± 2 J
• If applicable, strip prints with the correct
information on it
• Delay between the peak of the QRS and
the delivered shock is <
30 ms
• If clinicians use an external monitor as the
ECG source, verify that the external
monitor and the device combination will
deliver a synchronized shock within 60 ms
of the peak of the R-wave.
then Synchronized cardioversion test passes.
SC:x
Example SC:p
Pacing Test
(P)
Using a defibrillator analyzer, perform the
“Pacer Test” on page 169.
• (70 ppm) 30 mA
• (180 ppm) 140 mA
If all checks pass, and all data within limits:
•30mA±5mA
•140mA±14mA
then Pacing test passes.
P:x
Example P:p
Defibrillator
Test — AC
Power (DA)
(if AC Power
used in
normal
operation)
Using only AC power and a defibrillator
analyzer, run the “Defibrillator Test (AC
Power at 200 J)” on page 168.
If all checks pass, and all data within limits: DA:x
Example DA:p
Energy measured by analyzer:
Delivered into 50-ohm test load 200 ± 20 J
Setting displayed by HeartStart XL+: 200 J
Delivered energy Actual delivered energy ± 10%
then Defibrillator Measurement test passes
Defibrillator
Tes t —
Battery Power
(DB)
Using only battery power and a
defibrillator analyzer, run the
“Defibrillator Test (Battery Power at
200 J)” on page 168):
If all checks pass, and all data within limits: DB:x
Example DB:p
Energy measured by analyzer:
Delivered into 50-ohm test load 200 ± 20 J
Setting displayed by HeartStart XL+: 200 J
Delivered energy Actual delivered energy ± 10%
then Defibrillator Measurement test passes.
