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-C Marquette 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.

A performance check must be carried out before each use.
The check includes:
a visual inspection of the device, the cables and
the electrodes for signs of mechanical damage, verification of the functional readiness of the
device, delivery of a test discharge.
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 service technician.

Manual Defibrillation / Non-Synchronized Defibrillation
4 Manual Defibrillation
4.1 Defibrillator Application Guidelines
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.

When the selected energy is stored,
the device emits an audio signal
the message "Energy available" appears,
the available energy is displayed (if the available energy drops below a given level, the defibrillator recharges automatically).
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 the available energy),
the recorder prints a 14-second ECG strip (4 seconds before the shock, 5 seconds blanked, 10 seconds after the shock) (configurable); the blanked period of time is indicated by a vertical line on the recording;
the shock delivery is annotated on the stored 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.

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. When re-installing it, the large contact surface
must audibly click into place.

Manual Defibrillation / Non-synchronized Defibrillation
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.
Using Disposable Defibrillation Pads
Use pads before their expiration date.
Do
A pair of pads may remain attached to the
patient for up to 24 hours and withstands up to 50 shocks of 360 J each.
Use electrodes 919 202 94 for adults and
electrodes 919 202 95 for children. Shave the application points; this improves
conductivity and makes removal of the pads easier. STERNUM: right sternal edge at the level of the 2nd intercostal space, APEX: left axillary line at the level of the 5th intercostal space (Figure 4-7).

Using Internal Defibrillation Elec­trodes
Note
If you are using internal electrodes with the Marquette Responder® 3000, defibrillator charg­ing must be initiated with button and the shock is delivered by simultaneously pressing buttons and .
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").

Manual Defibrillation / Synchronized Defibrillation
Warning
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).

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.
