Zoll R Series Defibrillator
Details
Zoll R Series Features The R Series® introduced Simple, Smart, and Ready defibrillation to hospitals. Two models now make code-readiness possible for every hospital department, with advanced, cost-effective solutions for resuscitation. Both models are available with pacing, end-tidal CO2, noninvasive blood pressure, and SPO2 monitoring capabilities. Available with pacing, end-tidal CO2, non- invasive blood pressure, and SpO2 monitoring capabilities and Conducts an automated, comprehensive self- test once a day, including battery status and electrode integrity to ensure it is Code-Ready. R Series Plus A fully functional, manual defibrillator that powers on as an AED, the R Series Plus can be converted to a manual defibrillator with the push of one button. R Series ALS The first R Series manual defibrillator; available with networking capabilities and SeeThru CPR®. R Series BLS This cost-effective, entry-level defibrillator is ideal for low-acuity areas, where advanced capabilities are rarely needed. First responders can use the BLS as a one-button AED until the Code Team arrives and switches the unit to the manual defibrillator mode with SpO2 and optional pacing.

Additional Information
General Information About Defibrillators Why Defibrillation? Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCR)-Rapid irregular rhythm causing heart to quiver Cause: Ventricular Fibrillation (VF) Can lead to death if emergency shock not delivered Defibrillation – to counteract fibrillation Defibrillator Device used to administer an electric current (shock) to the heart Types of Defibrillators Manual external Manual Internal Automated External (AED) Semi-Automated External Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (ICD) Manual External Defibrillator Widely used in Hospitals and clinics Inbuilt EKG reader Clinician Diagnoses the condition and accordingly administers the shock through paddles or pads Manual Internal Defibrillator Exclusively used in Operation Theatres Charge delivered through internal paddles in direct contact with the heart Automated External Defibrillator (AED) Used by lay persons requiring little training Built in heart rhythm analyzer Advices whether shock is required Semi-Automated External Defibrillators Used by paramedics and emergency medical technicians Automated capabilities of AED With ECG display and manual over ride option Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator Implants similar to pacemakers Constantly monitor heart rhythm Automatically administers shock for arrhythmias Types of waveform - Shape of defibrillation current Monophasic damped sine waveform – delivers energy in one direction Relies on adjustment of joule settings Biphasic damped sine waveform – bi-directional current flow Measures impedance of patient and delivers precise dose of electricity Uses significantly low energy levels Decreases risk of burn in Myocardial damage
