1 Description and Indications for Use
The CPRmeter with Q-CPR® technology is a small, lightweight device
powered by a replaceable battery. The CPRmeter is intended for use by
responders who have been trained in CPR and use of the CPRmeter.
The CPRmeter is used as a guide in administering cardiopulmonary
resuscitation (CPR) to a suspected sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) victim at
least 8 years old. If in doubt about the appropriateness for use, perform CPR
without using the CPRmeter.
When attached to the bare chest of a suspected victim of SCA, the
CPRmeter provides real-time feedback on CPR compressions in accordance
with current CPR guidelines. It displays CPR feedback indicators for depth,
release, and rate of chest compressions. It also counts the number of
compressions in a series, and provides notification of lack of expected CPR
activity.
WARNING: The CPRmeter is not intended for use on SCA victims under
8 years old.
IMPORTANT NOTE: CPR cannot assure survival, no matter how well it is
performed. In some patients, the underlying problem causing the cardiac
arrest is not survivable despite any available care.

Compression
Depth Indicator
Compression
Depth Target
The display of the CPRmeter provides real-time feedback to the responder as
described below.
Compression
Rate Indicator
Good Compressions
Each compression performed is represented on
the CPRmeter display by a moving white
compression depth indicator bar. When the
CPRmeter detects that a compression meets
the targets for depth or release, the target briefly
illuminates.
If the CPRmeter detects that the rate of
compressions is within the target area, the
“speedometer” needle on the compression rate
indicator points to the green target area and the
green target briefly illuminates.
Compression Depth
If the CPRmeter detects a compression that fails
to meet the proper minimum compression depth
target (50 mm / 2 inches – for a patient on a hard
surface), the compression depth target does not
illuminate.
If 4 consecutive compressions fail to meet the
compression depth target, the display shows a
yellow arrow pointing to the compression depth
target.
If the CPR meter detects a compression that
exceeds 70 mm (2.75"), the CPRmeter shows the depth indicator below
the target area. If a specific CPR event requires CPR to be performed
on a patient lying on a mattress, slide a backboard under the patient and
compensate for the mattress softness by ensuring that for each chest
compression the area below the compression depth target lights up.
WARNING: When performing CPR on a patient lying on a mattress, a
backboard must be used to limit the amount of compressed depth which is
absorbed by the mattress. Depending on characteristics of the mattress,
backboard and patient, the depth compensation does not guarantee that
the patient chest is compressed by 50 mm / 2 inches.
12
English
Incomplete Release
If the CPRmeter detects that pressure is not fully
released between compressions, the release target
does not illuminate. If 4 consecutive compressions
fail to meet the release target, the display shows a
yellow arrow pointing to the compression release
target. Release pressure completely between
compressions.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Release pressure completely between compressions.
Compression Rate
If the CPRmeter detects that the compression
rate is greater than the target rate, the needle on
the compression rate indicator points to the right
of the green area. If the CPRmeter detects that the
compression rate is less than the target rate, the
needle on the compression rate indicator points to
the left of the green area.
Compression Counter
When compressions start, the CPRmeter display
shows a numerical compression counter. The
counter digits turn solid white between 25 and 30
compressions, as a guide to the responder when
performing a cycle of 30 compressions. Beyond 30
compressions, the counter digits flash solid white for
every tenth compression*.
The compression counter is reset after 3 seconds
without a compression.
* When performing continuous compression CPR on an intubated patient,
the compression counter may be used to time delivery of ventilations. At a
compression rate of 100 per minute: If a ventilation is delivered for every 10
continuous compressions, ventilation rate should be 10 per minute.

13
Inactivity
If compressions are stopped during a CPR event,
after 3 seconds the CPRmeter displays an inactivity
timer which counts the seconds since the last
compression.
After 20 seconds since the last compression, the
inactivity timer starts flashing.
After 1 minute, the CPRmeter display fades down
to conserve battery power. The display is restored
when a new compression is delivered.
After 10 minutes of inactivity, the CPRmeter is automatically turned off. To
restart the CPRmeter, press the On/Off button.

internal function. Therefore, its RF emissions
are very low and are not likely to cause any
interference in nearby electronic equipment.
The CPRmeter is suitable for use in
all establishments, including domestic
establishments and those directly connected
to the public low-voltage
power supply network that supplies buildings
used for domestic purposes.

† 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 40,660 MHz to 40,700 MHz.
‡ Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/
cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio
broadcast, and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess
the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site
survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the
CPRmeter is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the CPRmeter
should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed,
additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the CPRmeter.
Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile
RF communications equipment and the CPRmeter
The CPRmeter is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which
radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the CPRmeter
can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance
between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the
CPRmeter as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the
communications equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the
recommended separation distance d in meters (m) can be determined using the
equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum
output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter
manufacturer.
NOTE: 1. At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range
applies.
NOTE 2. The ISM (industrial, scientific and medial) 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 40,660 MHz to 40,700 MHz.
NOTE 3. An additional factor of 10/3 is used in calculating the recommended separation
distance for transmitters in the ISM frequency bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz
and in the frequency range 80 MHz to 2.5 GHz to
decrease the likelihood that mobile/portable communications equipment could cause
interference if it is inadvertently brought into patient areas.
NOTE 4. These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is
affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people
NOTE 5. Transmitters/antennas of this power-level are most likely mounted on an
emergency vehicle chassis. The distances cited here are for open field. For an external
antenna, the separation distance is most likely shorter.
