MANAGING DEFIBRILLATOR DATA

The LIFEPAK 1000 defibrillator provides an infrared method to transfer defibrillator data.

Overview of Data Storage

Every time you use the defibrillator, it digitally saves patient data that can be transferred to a PC.

You can provide patient data to aid in case review for quality control, training, and research

purposes. You should become familiar with local requirements for reporting a use of the

LIFEPAK 1000 defibrillator and for providing use data. For assistance in retrieving data from the

defibrillator, contact your local Physio-Control sales representative or authorized service

personnel.

Data Stored by the LIFEPAK 1000 Defibrillator

Whenever you turn on the defibrillator and connect it to a patient, it automatically stores data

about the patient. When this data is transferred to a data management system for review (for

example, CODE-STAT™ software), three patient reports are available: Event Log, Continuous

ECG, and CODE SUMMARY. Tabl e 4 -1 describes these reports.

The LIFEPAK 1000 defibrillator can store up to two patient records: one for the current patient

and one for the previous patient. When you use the defibrillator

, it is important to transfer the

patient data as soon as possible after use. The Complete Record for the current patient includes

the Continuous ECG and Event Log. If you treat a second patient, the first patient’s Continuous

ECG is reformatted into a CODE SUMMARY report. If you treat a third patient, all of the first

patient’s data is deleted and the second patient’s Continuous ECG is reformatted into a

CODE SUMMARY report.

If you turn the defibrillator on and off without attaching electrodes to a patient, the defibrillator

does not create a new patient record and the patient records in the defibrillator are not altered.

The LIFEPAK 1000 defibrillator does not delete patient data after you transfer the data to a PC.

The defibrillator deletes previous patient data only when it is connected to a new patient or a

simulator.

Table 4-1 Patient Reports

Report Type Description

Continuous ECG Forty minutes of the patient’s ECG rhythm beginning when the patient is

CODE

SUMMARY

Combines the Event Log and a sampling of continuous ECG rhythms

associated with certain events, such as defibrillation.
