In/Marker Out specifications in Appendix A is properly
connected.
• Ensure that Sync markers appear with each R-wave on
the remote device’s display. If Sync markers are not
present on the remote device’s display or do not appear
to be nearly simultaneous with each R-wave, do not
proceed with synchronized cardioversion.
• Press and hold SHOCK button(s) until energy is
delivered to the patient.
7. No apparent energy delivery to
patient
• Under certain circumstances, some patients will not
show a physical reaction when energy is delivered.
• Perform defibrillator self-test.
• Check for CHECK PADS and POOR PAD CONTACT
messages alternating on the monitor.
• If hands-free therapy electrodes are used, ensure
proper placement and contact.
• Review the discharge stripchart for Joules/current
delivered.
8. CHECK PADS or ATTACH PADS
