1. Introduction

1.1 Device Description

CU-SP1 AUTO is an easy-to-use Fully Automated External Defibrillator (AED) that is small, light,

and portable, and uses a battery.

The AED automatically reads the patient's electrocardiogram (ECG) and determines if a cardiac

arrest that requires defibrillation has occurred, so that both medical professionals and the

general public can easily operate it. Cardiac arrest can occur anytime to anyone at any place

and may threaten the patient's life if the appropriate CPR and/or electric shock with a

defibrillator are not applied within a few minutes.

The i-PAD CU-SP1 AUTO is a Fully automated external defibrillator (AED). If connected to a

patient, the i-PAD CU-SP1 AUTO automatically acquires and analyzes the electrocardiogram

(ECG) of the patient for the presence of Ventricular Fibrillation or Ventricular Tachycardia (also

known as shockable rhythms). If a shockable rhythm is detected, the device automatically

charges itself. After charging is completed, the equipment delivers an electric shock

automatically.

The i-PAD CU-SP1 AUTO is easy to use. It guides the you throughout a rescue operation using

voice prompts and indicators (LED and graphical indicators).

defibrillator is available, perform CPR if necessary.

17

4.2 Preparation for Defibrillation

① Set the Adult/Pediatric Selection Switch to match the victim.

Adult victim

• Open the switch cover

• Set the switch to adult defibrillation mode as shown in the following picture

Child victim (victim is under 25kg or 8 years old)

If the pediatric pads are attached, the i-PAD CU-SP1 AUTO automatically adjusts its

defibrillation energy output for pediatric defibrillation regardless of the position of the

Adult/Pediatric Selection Switch (i.e. the output will be pediatric even if the selection switch is

set to adult)

If there are no pediatric pads for the pediatric patient, adult pads may be used. Ensure that the

Adult/Pediatric Selection Switch is set to Pediatric Mode. If the switch has not been set yet,

move it to Pediatric Mode as shown in the figures below

• Open the switch cover

18

• Set the switch to pediatric defibrillation mode as shown in the following picture

If a young victim is over 25kg or 8 years old, or if you are not sure of the exact weight or

age:

• DO NOT DELAY TREATMENT

• Set the Adult/Pediatric Selection Switch to Adult mode.

• Use the adult pads.

WARNING

 Never perform defibrillation in pediatric mode to a patient who is either heavier than 25 kg or

older than 8 years old. Ensure the slide key for Adult/Pediatric Mode is as shown on the

bottom.

 You can switch the adult/pediatric selection switch before or after turning on the i-PAD CU-

SP1 AUTO. However, the defibrillation mode should be changed before placing the pads on

the patient. Once the pads are in place, you cannot change the defibrillation mode anymore.

When the mode is correctly selected, the defibrillation energy is set to an adult value (150 J)

or pediatric value (50 J).

② Turn the device on by pressing the Power Button.

When the power turns ON the following occurs in sequence:

 the beeper will beep for 1 seconds

 Voice instruction: “Call emergency Medical services, now”

19

③ Remove clothes from patient's chest.

CAUTION

 Time is essential for the cardiac arrest patient. Tear or cut clothes if removing them will take

time.

 Dry the patient's skin such that pads can adhere well on the chest. Shave hair on the chest if

necessary.

④ Remove the pads package from the Pads Storage Compartment at the bottom of the

device.

⑤ Open the pads package.

20

⑥ Take pads out of the pads package.

⑦ Refer to the pictures on both pads.

CAUTION

 The adhesive material on the pads starts to dry out as soon as the package is opened. Use

immediately after opening. Refer to [Section 6.2: Maintenance] of these Instructions for Use

for procedures on how to check the expiration date of the pads and pads maintenance.

21

Defibrillation in Adult Mode

Step 1: Place pads on the patient.

① Remove pad 1 from the single liner and stick the pad to the patient’s upper chest as shown

below.

② Remove pad 2 from the single liner, and stick the pad to the patient’s side torso as shown

below.

③ If the device detects the connection with the patient after placing the pads, follow the voice

instruction of the device.

 Defibrillation can be done even if the pads are reversed. If the locations of pads are switched,

follow the next voice instruction without changing the directions of pads. It is more important to

begin defibrillation as soon as possible.

 In the event the pad is not adhering well, check if the adhesive side of the pads is dry. Each

pad has an adhesive gel. If the gel does not adhere well, replace it with a new pads.

WARNING

 Ensure the patient is not on a wet surface when performing defibrillation. If the patient's skin is

wet, dry the skin first prior to using the device.

 Keep the pads well clear of other electrodes or metal parts in contact with the patient.

22

Step 2: Automatic shock delivery if needed.

The device acquires and analyzes the patient's ECG immediately after being connected. The

device will instruct you not to touch the patient by flashing the Do-Not-Touch-Patient Indicator

and by issuing the voice prompt: “Do not touch the patient, analyzing heart rhythm”. After

analyzing the ECG, the device will determine whether or not the patient needs defibrillation.

WARNING

 Do not move or touch the patient during ECG analysis.

If the patient needs defibrillation, the device will do the following:

The device announces that a defibrillation shock is needed, and instructs you to keep away

from the patient.

CAUTION

 While the device is charging after a shockable rhythm is detected, the ECG of the patient is

continuously acquired and analyzed. The device disarms itself if the ECG rhythm changes to

a non-shockable rhythm before shock delivery.

When it is charged, the device activates the following indicators in sequence:

 The beeper will beep continuously.

 The voice guide saying "Stand by, for automatic shock delivery. Warning: No one should be

touching the patient." will be given.

After the voice guide saying "Shock will be delivered in", the device delivers a defibrillating

shock to the patient. If defibrillation is properly done, the device reports that an electric shock

has been delivered.

After shock delivery, the device indicates that you may touch the patient, and the CPR Mode

Indicator is lit. Then, the voice instruction for CPR starts.

23

If the patient does not need defibrillation, the device will do the following in sequence:

• the device announces that the patient does not need a defibrillating shock and that you may

touch the patient.

• the CPR Mode Indicator is lit.

• voice instruction for CPR starts.

WARNING

 Do not touch (you or anybody else) the patient during shock delivery.

 Do not open SHIELD RUBBER that covers IrDA port and SD card port during defibrillation therapy.

CAUTION

 Before defibrillation, make sure that there is no contact which may provide unwanted

pathways for the defibrillating current; patient’s body (such as exposed skin or head or limbs),

conductive fluids (such as gel, blood, or saline), metal objects (such as bed frame or

stretcher)

 While analyzing ECG, keep the patient still and minimize movements around the patient. Do

not touch the patient and pads while the Do-Not-Touch-Patient Indicator is on. Electrical noise

(interference) may delay the ECG analysis.

 During defibrillation, disconnect other medical electrical equipment which has no defibrillation-

proof applied parts from the patient.

 If the device malfunctions during a rescue operation, it will instruct you to get a replacement

defibrillator and will start the voice instruction for CPR. Have CPR performed until the

replacement defibrillator is ready to use.

24

Step 3: Perform CPR.

Perform CPR when the i-PAD CU-SP1 AUTO instructs you to do so.

By default, the CU-SP1 AUTO gives voice instruction for CPR during pause for CPR after a

shock delivery. When voice instruction for CPR is needed outside of the default setting, press

the flashing blue i-Button for at least 15 seconds.

[CPR Method]

1. Compression Point

Place the heel of your hand in the middle of the patient's chest between nipples (which is the

lower half of the sternum), and put the heel of your other hand on top of the first so that your

hands are overlapped and parallel.

2. Compression Speed and Depth

Compress the chest at least 5 cm deep, and at a rate of at least 100 compressions per minute.

3. Opening the Airway

While lifting the patient's chin up, tilt the head backward to open the airway.

4. Ventilation Method

Pinch the patient's nose as shown in the figure below, and give the patient enough breath to

make the chest rise significantly.

25

 If you have not been trained in CPR, you should perform only chest compression or follow the

instructions of the emergency medical services’ agent on the phone.

 If you are trained for CPR and able to perform ventilation, perform the chest compression

along with ventilation.

 The CPR guide can be set on an administrator's mode. Refer to [Section 5.3: Device Setting]

for more information.

CAUTION

 While playing the CPR guide, the device does not analyze the patient's ECG. After the CPR

guide, the device automatically starts the reanalysis of the patient's ECG.

 In order to turn the device off after use, press the Power Button for at least 1 second.

26

4.3 Defibrillation Procedures in Pediatric Mode

When the patient is older than 1 year and younger than 8 years, defibrillation can be done using

the pediatric pads. When the device is in pediatric mode (pediatric pads are connected to the

device or the Adult/Pediatric Selection Switch is set to Pediatric), it automatically sets the

defibrillation energy to 50 J and provides pediatric CPR guide.

Place pads on the middle of the chest and back as illustrated above. Pads are not specific to

either chest or back.

If there are no pediatric pads for the pediatric patient, use adult pads but set the Adult/Pediatric

Selection Switch to Pediatric Mode, and then perform defibrillation according to the voice

instructions.

 Follow the instructions below when giving first aid during pediatric cardiac arrest.

• When giving first aid during a pediatric cardiac arrest, ask others to call the emergency

medical center and to bring the i-PAD CU-SP1 AUTO while you are performing pediatric

CPR.

• When there is no one else around, perform CPR for 1 to 2 minutes, call emergency medical

services, and then get the i-PAD CU-SP1 AUTO.

• If you witnessed the child’s collapse, call emergency medical services immediately, and

then get the i-PAD CU-SP1 AUTO.

72

NOTE 1. At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.

NOTE 2. These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is

affected by absorption and refection from structures, objec ts an d people.

a

The ISM (industrial, scientific and medical) bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz are 6,765

MHz to 6,795 MHz; 13,553 MHz to 13,567 MHz; 26,957 MHz to 27,283 MHz; and 40,66 MHz

to 40,70 MHz

b

The compliance levels in the ISM frequency bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz and in the

frequency range 80 MHz to 2.5 GHz are intended to decrease the likelihood that

mobile/portable communications equipment could cause interference if it is inadvertently

brought into patient areas. For this reason, an additional factor of 10/3 is used in c alcul ating

the recommended separation distance for transmitters in these frequency ranges

c

Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless)

teleph ones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadc ast a nd TV

broadc ast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagn e tic

enviro nment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be

considered. If the measured field stre ngth in the location in which the i-PAD CU-SP1 AUTO is

used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the CU-SP1 AUTO should be

observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, add itional

measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the i-PAD CU-SP1 AUTO

NOTE 1) At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the sepa ration distance for the higher frequency range

applies.

NOTE 2) The ISM (industrial, scientific and medical) bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz are

6,765 MHz to 6,795 MHz; 13,553 MHz to 1 3,567 MHz; 26,957 MHz to 27,283 MHz; and 40,66

NOTE 3)An additional facto r of 10/3 is used in calculating the recommended separation distance

for transmitters in the ISM frequency bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz a nd in the frequency

range 80 MHz to 2.5 GHz to decreas e the l ik elihood that mobile/portable communications

equipment could cause interference if it is inadvertently brought into patient areas.
