LIFEPAK CR–T Trainer Operating Instructions 1

Getting Started

INTRODUCTION

The LIFEPAK CR–T AED Trainer provides the necessary interface for practical skill demonstration during a simulated cardiac arrest. The Trainer is designed to assist the instructor with realistic training on the use of the defibrillator without the actual charge and discharge of electrical energy.

The Trainer simulates voice prompts, audible tones, and readiness display features of all LIFEPAK CR defibrillator models. These features help guide trainees through simulated analysis, simulated shock delivery, and prompted CPR time.

An infrared, wireless, remote control allows the instructor to operate the Trainer during training sessions. Labeled buttons on the remote control are used to define operating settings for training scenarios and, while training is in progress, pause Trainer operation or interrupt preset training scenarios. Optional operating settings offer flexibility and a variety of potential setup configurations.

The Trainer and remote control are intended for indoor use under normal room temperature and lighting conditions.

Note: The Trainer does not provide training for the defibrillator data management functions.

CONTROLS, INDICATORS, AND LABELS

There are several important controls, indicators, and labels on the LIFEPAK CR–T AED Trainer with which you should become familiar.

Outside Controls, Indicators, and Labels

The outside controls, indicators, and labels are identified in Figure 1 and Figure 2 and described in

Ta bl e 1 and Tab le 2 .

1 Carrying handle The carrying handle is used to transport the Trainer.

2 Readiness display This display simulates whether the defibrillator is ready for use or needs

attention. The remote control and CHARGE-PAK activate the following indicators:

OK indicator. Simulates that the defibrillator is ready for use.

CHARGE-PAK indicator. Simulates that the CHARGE-PAK needs to be replaced or is not installed.

Attention indicator. Simulates that the internal battery of the defibrillator is low.

Wrench indicator. Simulates that there is a condition that prevents or could prevent normal operation of the defibrillator. Service is required.

3 Lid The top of the Trainer. After the lid is open, the Trainer begins training

scenarios. When the lid is closed, the Trainer simulates the defibrillator in OFF status.

24 Training shock button Pressing this red flashing button simulates the delivery of a shock by the

defibrillator semiautomatic model. (The trainee cannot deliver a simulated shock unless a Trainer voice prompt instructs them to do so.)

When training simulates the defibrillator automatic model, cover this button with the yellow shock button cover.

Remote Control and Remote Control Cable

The remote control is stored in the remote control compartment (refer to page 4). The dual-function keys are used to configure the Trainer operating settings prior to a training session and to alter simulation during training scenarios. The remote control communicates with the Trainer through signals to the infrared sensor located in the back of the Trainer.

The remote control cable, stored in the storage compartment (refer to pages 3 and 4), can be used as an alternative to the infrared sensor. Refer to Section 2, beginning on page 9, for information about connecting the remote control cable.

Figure 5 shows the remote control and remote control cable with the features identified in Tab l e 5 .

Remote control button functions are described in Section 2, beginning on page 10.
