FRED easy
2.2 Design
Defibrillator FRED easy® is a defibrillator featuring the biphasic pulsed defibrillation impulse,
Multipulse Biowave®. The patient is defibrillated using disposable electrodes. The
ECG signal is analysed using the same electrodes.
Moreover, the user is guided with acoustic and written instructions (display/loud-
speaker). The device recognises the connected electrodes (adult or children elec-
trodes) and selects the defibrillation energy accordingly.
Metronome When the "metronome" is activated, the FRED easy® sets a configurable pace for the
cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
Data memory The device is equipped with a memory card (SD card). During the intervention, data
can therefore be saved, including the analysed ECG data, ambient noise and events
(see 5.1 SD card version, 5.2 Ethernet version and 5.3 Online version).
Data transmission The FRED easy® SD card version features a removable SD memory card, facilitating
data transmission to other devices. For the Ethernet and Online versions, data trans-
mission is performed via Ethernet network (for these device versions, the memory
card cannot be removed).
Power supply (standard) The device is operated with a non rechargeable, disposable lithium battery. The bat-
tery capacity is sufficient for:
– 180 shocks at maximum energy (if the self-test is performed weekly), or,
– 3.75 hours operating (alternately 30 minutes ON and 30 minutes OFF).
Power supply (option) A rechargeable NiCd battery is available as option. The capacity of a new and fully
charged battery is sufficient for:
– 45 shocks at maximum energy, or
– 40 min operating
