5.2.3 Placement of the defibrillation pads
The correct placement of the pads on the patient is essential for an effective analysis of the heartbeat and for the
consequent delivery of the shock (if needed).
Please always refer to the instructions on the packaging and to the specific user manual.
5.2.4 Adult and Paediatric mode
SMARTY Saver Plus makes it possible to use universal defibrillation plates, i.e. that can be used on adult
(age >8 or weight >25 kg) and paediatric (age from 1 to 8 or weight <25 kg) patients.
The type of patient must be selected before placing the plates on the chest, with the dedicated button on the device’s
keyboard (see figure below).
By pushing the dedicated button for 2 seconds, you will activate the pre-selected mode, and the corresponding control
LED will light up.
Note: On being switched on, the device - by default - is supplied with the universal plates in Adult Patient mode.
