Introduction

Thank you for choosing the HeartStart MRx monitor/defibrillator. Philips Healthcare welcomes you to its family of resuscitation devices.

The HeartStart MRx is designed to meet your monitoring and resuscitation needs by providing advanced, multi-parameter monitoring functions, a full range of defibrillation therapies, industryleading algorithms and a suite of data transmission options. This guide provides instructions for the safe and proper operation of the device, as well as set-up, configuration, and maintenance information.

Be sure to familiarize yourself with the features and operation of your HeartStart MRx prior to its use.

Overview

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. Optional monitoring of pulse oximetry (SpO2), noninvasive blood pressure (NBP), carbon dioxide (EtCO2), temperature, and invasive pressures are also available. Measurements from these parameters are presented on the display. Alarms are available to alert you to changes in the patient’s condition. You can also display a Vital Signs Trending Report to view all key parameters and their measurements at a glance.

Monitor Mode also provides an optional 12-Lead ECG function, enabling you to preview, acquire, store, and print 12-lead ECG reports, with or without analysis/interpretation. In addition, there are several STEMI decision support tools, including STEMI Culprit Artery, Critical Values and the Acute Cardiac Ischemia Time-Insensitive Predictive Instrument (ACI-TIPI) and Thrombolytic Predictive Instrument (TPI) algorithms. You can also transmit 12-Lead reports and Event Summaries via the 12Lead ECG Transmission and Event Summary Data Transfer options. Other transmission options are available. See “Data Transmission” on page 239.

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. If desired, use of Manual Defib Mode may be password protected.

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 on the display.

1 Introduction

Intended Use

The Manual Defib and AED modes incorporate Philips’ low energy SMART Biphasic waveform for defibrillation. Both modes also offer the Q-CPR® option. Q-CPR offers real-time measurement and corrective feedback on the rate, depth/complete release of compressions (and lack of CPR activity) and ventilation rate. The HeartStart MRx displays a CPR Timer and compression counter to assist with protocol management.

The HeartStart MRx also has an optional Audio function which allows you to record audio during a patient event.

Optional Pacer Mode offers noninvasive transcutaneous pacing therapy. Pace pulses are delivered through multifunction electrode pads, using a monophasic waveform. If desired, use of Pacer Mode may be password protected.

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 gauge on the battery itself. Additionally, an external AC or DC Power Module may be applied as a secondary power source and for continual battery charging.

The HeartStart MRx performs Automated Tests on a regular basis. The results of these tests are reported to the Ready For Use (RFU) indicator. The prominently displayed RFU indicator communicates the status of your device, letting you know 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 automatically stores critical event data, such as Event Summaries, 12-Lead Reports and Vital Signs Trending, in its internal memory. The HeartStart MRx also enables you to store data and event information on an optional data card for downloading to Philips’ data management solution, HeartStart Event Review Pro, or you can send the data electronically via several methods to your destination point.

The HeartStart MRx is highly configurable to better meet the needs of diverse users. Be sure to familiarize yourself with your device’s configuration before using the HeartStart MRx. See Chapter 17 “Configuration” for more details.

M3538A Lithium Ion Battery

M3538A Lithium Ion Battery

The HeartStart MRx uses the M3538A Lithium Ion Battery. The battery has a fuel gauge with 5 LED indicators, each representing a charge of at least 20% of capacity. Press the fuel gauge button to illuminate the fuel gauge.

CAUTION A battery should be used as the primary power source. AC/DC should be used as a secondary source, if desired. If an AC/DC power module is used as the only power source, the HeartStart MRx takes longer to charge to the desired energy level and, in the event of power loss, all settings reset to the default settings and a new incident is created when power is returned. All stored data remains intact and can be found by retrieving the previous incident. Keep your unit charged.

Battery Capacity

A new, fully-charged M3538A battery, operating at room temperature 25oC (77oF), provides at least 5 hours of monitoring, with ECG, SpO2, CO2, temperature, two invasive pressures monitored continuously, NBP measured every 15 minutes, and 20 200J discharges. A fully charged new battery provides approximately 3.5 hours of monitoring, with ECG, SpO2, CO2, temperature, two invasive pressures monitored continuously, NBP measured every 15 minutes, and pacing at 180ppm at 160mA.

Battery Life

Battery life depends on the frequency and duration of use. When properly cared for, the M3538A Lithium Ion battery has a useful life of approximately 2 years. To optimize performance, a fully (or nearly fully) discharged battery should be charged as soon as possible.

Operating Modes

The HeartStart MRx has four clinical modes of operation, each with a customized display view. The modes are as follows:
