Hard Paddles
Hard paddles are the electrodes commonly used
for external, transchest defibrillation. There is a
special Apex paddle and a Sternum paddle.
For delivery of the defibrillation shock, the
paddles are placed directly on the body surface.
Before use, however, an ample amount of
electrode gel must be spread onto the paddles.
Both paddles have a shock button: The shock
button on the Apex paddle is used to initiate
defibrillator charging; afterwards the defibrillation
shock is triggered by pushing both shock buttons.
The paddles can also be used to acquire the ECG
signal.
A smaller contact surface for defibrillation of
children is integrated in the paddles (see "Defibrillation of Children" in section 4.2).
Electrodes for Internal Defibrillation
d
Figure 2-3.Electrode for internal defibrillation
Figure 2-4.Disposable adhesive electrode
(external defibrillation, pacing)
Electrodes for internal defibrillation consist of a
contact spoon (a, Figure 2-3), a handle b, and a
counter nut c.
The spoon must match the size of the heart and
have full contact with the myocardium. There is a
choice of 3 different spoon sizes.
The electrodes as well as their connection cable
must be sterilized before each use.
An internal defibrillation is either performed with
spoon electrodes or with
two
spoon electrode
one
and a so-called "external counter electrode" (d,
Figure 2-3) which is placed under the patient and
in the immediate vicinity of the heart.
Defibrillator charging and release of the defibrillation shock are initiated with buttons on the
device.
Disposable Adhesive Electrodes
Disposable adhesive electrodes are used both for
defibrillation and for pacing. These electrodes are
self-adhesive and pregelled. They are connected by
means of a special cable and may remain attached
to the patient for a maximum of 24 hours.

Safety information
Danger
Explosion Hazard – The device is not designed for
use in areas of medically used rooms where an
explosion hazard may occur. An explosion hazard
may result from the use of flamm able anesthetics,
skin cleansing agents and disinfectants.
Also, it is not permitted to operate the defibrillator
in an oxygen-enriched environment or in the
presence of flammable substances (gas) or anesthetics.
Oxygenation in the vicinity of the defibrillation
electrodes must be strictly avoided. Temporarily
interrupt the oxygen supply.
Warning
Shock Hazard — Observe the follo wing warnings.
Otherwise the lives of the patient, the user and
bystanders are in danger.
-
The Marquette Responder® 3000 is a highvoltage electrotherapy device and must be
handled by qualified and specially trained personnel. Improper use of the device can endanger life. Always follow the instructions given
in the operator's manual.
-
When equipped with the AC power adapter, do
not use the defibrillator outdoors because the
power adapter is not splash-proof.
-
Before using the device, the operator must
ascertain that it is in correct working order
and operating condition. In particula r, a ll
connectors, electrodes as well as sensors and
probes must be checked for signs of damage.
Damaged parts must be replaced immediately,
before use.
-
When disconnecting the device from the power
line, remove the plug from the wall o utlet first,
before disconnecting the cable from the device. Otherwise there is a risk of coming in
contact with line voltage by inadvertently introducing metal parts in the socket o f the
power cord.
-
As a general rule, utmost caution is advised
for intracardiac application of medical technical devices. Great care must be exercised to
prevent that conductive parts (connectors,
electrodes, transducers) connected to the isolated patient signal input come in co ntact with
other grounded conductive parts, as this could
bridge the patient's isolation and cancel the
protection provided by the isolated input.
227 490 02-CMarquette Responder® 3000 9
Putting the Device Into Operation and Performance Check
-
Electrically conductive contact with parts
connected to the heart (pressure transducers,
metal tube connections and cock s, guide
wires, electrode catheters and the metal parts
of syringes) must be avoided at all cost.
When using devices intracardially, observe
these guidelines:
-
always wear isolating rubber gloves;
-
parts with a conductive connection to the
heart must be isolated from ground;
-
do not use tube fittings and stopcock s made
of metal, if possible;
-
when connecting the heart catheter, observe
these guidelines:
- the connection must be isolated
- all electrodes must be attached to the patient and secured against inadvertent disconnection or they must be isolated and
protected against inadvertent contact (otherwise electrodes that become disconnected
could bring the patient in contact with
ground).
-
When devices are used intracardially, the
annual Technical Inspections are manda tory.
During intracardiac application of medical
electrical devices, a defibrillator and pacemaker, both checked for proper functioning,
must be readily available.
-
Ensure that no conductive connection between
the patient and bystanders exists during defibrillation.
-
The mains plug must be connected to an
appropriate power supply with a non-fused
earthed wire. If these requirements cannot be
guaranteed, connect the device to the ambulance power supply or operate it on battery
power.
-
Do not use multiple portable socket outlets
(MPSO) to connect the device to the power
line.
-
Devices may be connected to other devices or
to parts of systems only when it has been made
certain that there is no danger to the patient,
the operators, or the environment as a result.
In those instances where there is any element
of doubt concerning the safety of connected
devices, the user must contact the manufacturers concerned or other informed experts as
to whether there is any possible danger to the
patient, the operator, or the environment as a
result of the proposed combination of devices.
Standards IEC 60601-1-1/EN60601-1-1 must
be complied with in all cases.
-
The device (without AC power adapter) is
suitable for application in a humid environment provided the regulations concerning
drip-proof equipment of IEC 60601/EN 60601
are strictly observed. However, do not defibrillate patients in a very moist or wet environment, unless absolutely necessary. Always
dry the defibrillation electrodes and connection cables prior to defibrillatio n.

Putting the Device Into Operation and Performance Check
Warning
-
Equipment Failure — Magnetic and electrical
fields are capable of interfering with the
proper performance of the device. For this
reason make sure that all external devices operated in the vicinity of the defibrillator com ply with the relevant EMC requirements. Xray equipment, MRI devices, radio systems,
and cellular telephones are a possible source
of interference as they may emit higher levels
of electromagnetic radiation.
Keep the defibrillator away from these d evices
and verify the defibrillator performa nce before
use.
-
Equipment Failure — Similarly, the defibrillator may disturb equip ment operating in its
vicinity when charging or delivering the
shock. Verify the performance of these devices
before use.
-
Suffocation Hazard — Dispose of the packaging material, observing the applicable
waste-control regulations. Keep the packaging
material out of children's reac h.

Caution
-
Equipment Damage, Shock Hazard — Devices intended for emergency application must
not be exposed to low temperatures during
storage and transport to avoid moisture condensation at the application site. Wait until all
moisture has vaporized before using the device.
-
Equipment Damage — Exercise great care
when using HF surgery equipment on the patient at the same as the defibrillator. As a g eneral rule, the distance between the ECG and
defibrillation electrodes and the HF surg ery
electrodes should not be less than 15 cm. If
this is not ensured, disconnect the electrodes
and transducer leads while using the HF surgery device.
-
Equipment Damage — Avoid defibrillating
repeatedly into open air or with the paddles
shorted together, because the device temperature may increase to an inadmissible level due
to the internal safety discharges.

After power-up and during operation, the
Marquette Responder® 3000 runs automatic selftests. If malfunctions are identified, an error
message will be displayed (see chapter 17 "Error
and System Messages"). In this situation do not
put the device into service.
In all other cases you will see the standard screen
display (Figure 3-7) and the device is ready for
use.
Now verify that the defibrillation shock is
correctly delivered by triggering a test discharge
(chapter 15 "Test Discharge").
If the energy of the test discharge is not within the
specified limits, a defibrillation is possible all the
same (it is the user's decision whether or not to
employ the defibrillator). However, the device
must be immediately checked and repaired by a

Observe the following guidelines to ensure
successful and safe defibrillation. Otherwise the
lives of the patient, the user and bystanders are in
danger.
Warning
-
Defibrillating a patient with normal hea rt
rhythm may induce ventricular fibrillation.
-
Position the patient flat on a hard surface
where he is electrically insulated. The patient
must not be allowed to come into contact with
metal parts, e.g., bed or litter, to prevent unwanted pathways for the defibrilla tion current
which may endanger the assistants. For the
same reason, do not position the patient on
wet ground (rain, accident in swimming pool).
Do not allow the defibrillation electrodes to
come into contact with other electrodes or
metal parts which are in contact with the patient.
The patient's chest must be dry, because
moisture can cause unwanted pathways for
the defibrillation current.
After use of flammable skin cleansing agents,
wait until they have completely dried.
-
The operator and all assistants must be briefed
regarding the preparations for and execution
of defibrillation.
All tasks must be clearly assigned .
Immediately prior to the shock
- interrupt heart massage and artificial
respiration,
- disconnect tube connections, and
- warn bystanders.
-
Ensure that no conductive connection between
the patient and bystanders exists during defibrillation.
-
Before delivering the shock, verify that the
charged and selected energies are the same.
-
Shock Hazard — Always switch off the device
before exchanging the defibrillation electrodes.
-
Pacemaker Patients — Defibrillating a patient
with an implanted pacemaker is likely to impair the pacemaker function or cause damage
to the pacemaker.
For this reason
- select the smallest energy level possible for
the application,
- do not apply the defibrillation paddles in the
vicinity of the pacemaker electrodes,
- have an external pacemaker at hand,
- check the implanted pacemaker for proper
functioning as soon as possible after the
shock.
Caution
-
Equipment Damage — Disconnect transducers and devices that are not defibrillationproof from the patient before delivering the
shock.
-
Equipment Damage — Do not defibrillate the
patient with a second defibrillator, while def ibrillation electrodes (paddles, pads) of the first
device are applied.
If the use of a second defibrillator is inevitable, disconnect the electrodes from the first
device or remove them from the patient.

Now trigger the shock within 30 seconds. To do
so, simultaneously press the buttons a and b on
the paddles.
After the shock

the audio signal stops and the delivered energy
is displayed for approx. 6 seconds (in place of

blanked period of time is indicated by a vertical
line on the recording;

ECG (also refer to chapter 11 "Memories of the
Marquette Responder® 3000").
Note
If you do not trigger the shock within 30 sec-

onds of charging, the energy will automatically
be discharged internally. You will then have to
recharge the defibrillator.
When the defibrillator is charged, you can
−
increase and decrease the energy level to any
value with the energy selector (without pressing
the "Charge" button again).
For an internal discharge of the stored energy,
set the energy selector to or to "Off".
If the defibrillator cannot store the selected energy
so that selected and stored energy values differ, a
warning will be displayed. The defibrillation pulse
can be triggered all the same.
In this situation we recommend to check the
batteries first. If the batteries are intact, have the
defibrillator immediately repaired.
The number of delivered shocks is indicated below
the energy value.

for continued monitoring of the patient.
Defibrillation of Children
Warning
Damage to Myocardium — Please note that children require less energy for successful ventricular
defibrillation than adults. For the first defibrillation shock delivered to babies and small children,
select an energy of approx. 2 J/kg body weight.
For subsequent shocks, the energy may be increased to 4 J/kg body weight.
Risk of Skin Burns — The full electrode m ust be
in contact with the skin surface (use the small
contact surface of the paddles / pads for children).
The paddles have two different contact surfaces; a
large one (can be removed) for the defibrillation of
adults and a smaller one for the defibrillation of
children.
Remove the large contact surface for pediatric use:
Press on the lock button 1 (Figure 4-5).
•
Slide the contact surface 2 towards the front
•
and take it off the paddle.

Danger
Shock Hazard — For defibrillation with disposable adhesive electrodes, the paddles including
their leads must be replaced with the adapter cable
223 383 01. Switch off the defibrillator before
exchanging the lead. Also, the defibrillator must
be switched off when the adapter cable is connected to the pads.

Warning
Shock Hazard – Always switch off the device
before exchanging the defibrillation electrodes
and internal spoons.
Spoon-shaped electrodes are used for internal
defibrillation. Their contact surface must match
the dimensions of the heart. The spoons must make
full contact with the heart. There is a choice of 3
different spoon sizes. You can use either two
spoon electrodes or one spoon electrode and one
external counter electrode for defibrillation
(Figure 4-10, chapter 20 "Order Information").
Sterilize internal electrodes before each use
(chapter 18 "Cleaning, Maintenance").

With internal electrodes, it is not possible to select
a value above 50 Joules, because higher energies
may damage the myocardium. When you set the

False Triggering — Do not use a pacemaker ECG
for triggering, because the trigger pulses derived
from pacemaker ECGs may be incorrect and
synchronized delivery of the defibrillation shock
may not be possible.
4.3 Synchronized Defibrillation
(Cardioversion)
Some Basic Facts
For synchronized defibrillation (cardioversion) the
defibrillation shock is delivered in synchronization
with the heart action, as the heart is still working.
As a prerequisite, the patient's ECG signal must be
supplied to the defibrillator. After the attending
physician has given the "defibrillation command"
by pressing the appropriate buttons, the device will
wait for the next QRS complex to derive the
trigger signal for actual delivery of the shock.
Note
After each synchronized defibrillation, the device
reverts to the non-synchronized mode; the same
applies when the energy selector is set to .
The following electrodes can be used for cardioversion:
−
paddles (+ separate ECG electrodes),
−
adhesive electrodes (pads), or
−
internal electrodes (+ separate ECG electrodes).
Indications
Examples
−
mitral stenosis
−
left ventricular hypertrophy (aortic stenosis,
hypertension)
−
impaired myocardiac function (ischemia, right
heart failure)
−
patients with atrial or ventricular arrhythmias,
hypotension and/or pulmonary edema.
If ventricular fibrillation develops, select the nonsynchronized mode for defibrillation, because it is
not possible to detect a QRS complex for
triggering in the presence of ventricular fibrillation.
Cardioversion with the Marquette Responder®
3000 is only possible in the manual mode.
We recommend acquiring the ECG with separate
ECG electrodes. However, you can also defibrillate the patient with adhesive pads and pick up the
ECG via the pads.
ECG Acquisition via Separate ECG
Electrodes and Patient Cable
Use only silver/silver-chloride electrodes to
acquire the ECG signal. These electrodes prevent
polarization voltages which may be caused by the
defibrillation shock, resulting in an ECG trace on
the monitor screen or recording that simulates
cardiac arrest. The ECG can be picked up with 5
or with 10 electrodes (for ECG measurement,
however, 10 ECG electrodes are required (chapter
8)).
Apply the electrodes as shown in Figure 4-13.
•
Plug the block of leadwires (N, R, L, F, C1)
•
into the patient cable (Figure 4-14).
Connect the patient cable to the device (Figure
•
4-15).

Note
The 3-lead patient cable cannot be used with this
defibrillator.
Turn on the device (energy selector to ).
•
On the monitor screen you will now see the 3 ECG
leads selected in the setup menu (factory defaults:
leads I, II, III).
Warning
Sho c k H a zard / Equipment Da m ag e — All patient
signal inputs labeled with the symbol are
protected against damage resulting from defibrillation and electrocautery voltages. For th i s re a son,
patient safety and device protecti on are en sur ed
during defibrillation and HF surgery.
Nevertheless, extreme care should be exercised when
electrosurgery devices are used on a patient who is
connected to other devices. As a general rule, a
minimum distance of 15 cm between the ECG and
electrosurgery electrodes should be maintained. If
this is not ensured, temporarily disconnect the electrodes and transducer l eads w hile usi ng the el ectrosurgery device.
Great care must be exercised to prevent that conductive parts (connectors, electrodes, transducers) connected to the isolated patient signal input come in
contact with other grounded conductive parts, as this
could bridge the patient 's i solat ion an d cancel th e
protection provided by the isol ated inpu t. It is particularly important that the neutral electrode does
not come in contact with ground.
