1: IntroductionFeatures and Capabilities
Features and Capabilities
The HeartStart MRx is a lightweight, portable, monitor/defibrillator. It provides four modes of
operation: Monitor, Manual Defib, AED, and Pacer (optional).
In Monitor Mode you can monitor up to four ECG waveforms, acquired through a 3-, 5-, or 10-lead
ECG set or multifunction electrode pads. Optional monitoring of pulse oximetry (SpO
pressure (IP), non-invasive blood pressure (NBP), temperature (Temp), and carbon dioxide (EtCO
also available. Measurements from these parameters are presented on the display and alarms are available
to alert you to changes in the patient’s condition.
Monitor Mode also provides an optional 12-Lead ECG function, enabling you to preview, acquire, store,
transmit, and print 12-Lead ECG reports, with or without analysis/interpretation.
Manual Defib Mode offers simple, 3-step defibrillation. You analyze the patient’s ECG and, if
appropriate: 1) select an energy setting, 2) charge, and 3) deliver the shock. Defibrillation may be
performed using paddles or multifunction electrode pads. Manual Defib Mode also allows you to
perform synchronized cardioversion and internal defibrillation.
In AED Mode, the HeartStart MRx analyzes the patient’s ECG and determines whether a shock is
advised. Voice prompts guide you through the 3-step defibrillation process, providing easy-to-follow
instructions and patient information. Voice prompts are reinforced by messages that appear on the
display.

Both Manual Defib and AED Mode incorporate the Philips’ low energy SMART Biphasic waveform for
defibrillation, Q-CPR, and audio recording.
Optional Pacer Mode offers non-invasive transcutaneous pacing therapy. Pace pulses are delivered
through multifunction electrode pads, using a monophasic waveform.
The HeartStart MRx is powered by rechargeable lithium ion batteries. Available battery power is easily
determined by viewing the convenient battery power indicators located on the device display or by
checking the indicators on the battery itself. Additionally, an external AC or DC power supply may be
applied as a secondary power source and for continual battery charging.
The HeartStart MRx performs Automated Tests on a regular basis. The status of the device’s critical
functions are reported to the Ready For Use (RFU) indicator. Prominently displayed, the RFU indicator
communicates the status of your device, letting you know if it is operating correctly, needs attention, or is
unable to deliver therapy. In addition, performing the specified Operational Check ensures that the
HeartStart MRx is functioning properly.
The HeartStart MRx M3535 model with the IntelliVue Networking Option can connect to the Philips
IntelliVue Clinical Network.
The HeartStart MRx automatically stores critical event and trend data in its internal memory, such as
Event Summaries and 12-Lead Reports. The HeartStart MRx also enables you to copy data and event
information to an optional external data card for downloading to Philips’ data management solution,
HeartStart Event Review Pro, as well as transfer data using Bluetooth
transferred using Rosetta-Lt™.
The HeartStart MRx is highly configurable to better meet the needs of diverse users. Be sure to
familiarize yourself with the device’s configuration before using the HeartStart MRx.

To calibrate the HeartStart MRx EtCO2 module you need:
•Gas flow valve
•Modified Filterline set with T-shaped tubing assembly
•5% calibration gas cylinder (15210-64010, six cans per case)
•Calculator
•Barometer to measure ambient pressure or other means of determining the ambient pressure.
Both the gas flow valve and Modified Filterline are provided in the CO
# 453564063851. The CO
troubleshooting only (see “EtCO
Calibration Kit, also contains a flow tube and two air plugs that are used for
2
Module Checks” on page 23) and not used in calibration.

You may hear a soft, low-pitch tone, this is normal EtCO2 pump operation. Another indication of
the EtCO
pump activity is the difference between the Ambient and Cell pressures. Subtract the Cell

warm-up time. You can use the HeartStart MRx screen clock. Do not start calibration until the
EtCO
sensor has been warmed up. Continue the preparation.

If the CO
module has clocked more than 15,000 hours, replacement is recommended.

Do not proceed with the calibration. Call for service.
6Obtain a reliable measurement of local atmospheric pressure by using a barometer or by getting the
local atmospheric pressure data from the Internet, local airport, or weather station located at the
same altitude as your HeartStart MRx.
7Press the Menu Select button and select Ambient Pressure.
8Using and buttons, adjust the HeartStart MRx’s Ambient Pressure setting to the
measurement obtained in Step 6.
9Press the Menu Select button again to accept the adjusted Ambient Pressure value.

For example:
[0.05]× [760 mmHg] = 38 mmHg
bCalculate the allowable tolerance, which is ± 5% of the expected reading. Calculate as follows:

For example:
[±0.05] × 38 = ± 1.9 (mmHg)
In this example, the displayed reading is expected to be 38 ± 1.9 mmHg.

12 Watch the manometer on the valve.
While the gas pressure does not have to be high for successful calibration, it should be present.
13 Connect the soft tubing at one end of the modified Filterline to the gas valve outlet, and leave the
other end open to atmosphere. See Figure 13.
