The M3500B HeartStart XLT Defibrillator/Monitor is designed to meet your
resuscitation and monitoring needs. This guide provides instructions for safe
and proper operation, set-up, configuration, and care of your HeartStart XLT.
In this chapter, you’ll find general information that you should become famil-
iar with before using the defibrillator/monitor.
Overview
The HeartStart XLT is a lightweight, portable, semi-automatic external
defibrillator. It offers two modes of operation for defibrillation:
Semi-Automatic External Defibrillation (AED) Mode
Manual Mode
Both modes incorporates a low energy SMART Biphasic waveform for
defibrillation.
In AED Mode, the HeartStart XLT analyzes the patient’s ECG and advises
you whether or not to deliver a shock. Voice prompts guide you through the
defibrillation process by providing instructions and patient information. The
voice prompts are reinforced by messages that appear on the display.
In Manual Mode, the HeartStart XLT turns control of the defibrillation pro-
cess over to you. You assess the patient’s ECG, decide if defibrillation is
advised, and select the energy setting for defibrillation. Manual Mode also
allows you to perform synchronized cardioversion and offers optional nonin-
vasive pacing.

Overview
Defibrillation is performed through multifunction defib electrode pads. In
addition, both AED and Manual Mode offer monitoring through pads, 3-lead
ECG monitoring electrodes, or optional 5-lead ECG monitoring electrodes.
Optional pulse oximetry (SpO ) monitoring is available in both modes, as
2
well. While monitoring ECG or SpO , you may set heart rate and/or SpO
2
2
alarms to alert you when these parameters are outside the limits defined.
The HeartStart XLT automatically stores critical events, such as shocks and
alarm violations, in its internal memory. Additional events of interest to you
may be marked for storage, as well. Events may be printed as they occur or an
Event Summary may be printed at any time. The HeartStart XLT also allows
you to store data and events on a Data Card for downloading to HeartStart
The versatile HeartStart XLT is highly configurable to better meet the needs
of diverse users. The messages and softkeys vary, depending on how the
HeartStart XLT is configured. Be sure to familiarize yourself with your con-
figuration before using the HeartStart XLT (see “Configuring the HeartStart
The HeartStart XLT is powered by a rechargeable sealed lead acid (SLA) bat-
onds. Proper care of your batteries will ensure that they have the energy
required to operate the HeartStart XLT and to deliver the appropriate therapy.
(See “Battery Maintenance” on page 11-8.) Similarly, following the specified
operational checks will ensure that the HeartStart XLT is functioning and
ready for use. (See “Operational Checks” on page 11-2.)

Intended Use
Intended Use
The M3500B HeartStart XLT Defibrillator/Monitor is for use by emergency
personnel trained in the operation of the device and qualified by training in
basic life support, advanced cardiac life support, defibrillation, or other physi-
cian-authorized emergency medical response. It must be used by or on the
order of a physician.
1
When operating as a semi-automatic external defibrillator in AED Mode, the
HeartStart XLT is suitable for use by health care professionals trained in basic
life support that includes the use of an AED.
When operating as a defibrillator/monitor in Manual Mode, the HeartStart
XLT is suitable for use by health care professionals trained in advanced car-
diac life support.
Defibrillation Therapy
Defibrillation therapy is the definitive method for termination of a variety of
potentially fatal arrhythmias. The HeartStart XLT provides this therapy
through the application of a brief biphasic pulse of electricity to the cardiac
muscle. This electrical energy is transferred through disposable multifunction
defib electrode pads applied to the patient’s bare chest.
NOTE
Successful resuscitation is dependent on many variables specific to the
patient’s physiological state and the circumstances surrounding the patient
event. Failure to have a successful patient outcome is not a reliable indicator
of defibrillator/monitor performance. The presence or absence of a muscular
response to the transfer of energy during electrical therapy is not a reliable
indicator of energy delivery or device performance.
Indications for AED Therapy
An AED is to be used in the presence of a suspected cardiac arrest on patients
that are:
Not breathing
Pulseless

Defibrillation Therapy
Contraindications for AED Therapy
An AED is not to be used on patients that exhibit one or any combination of
the following:
Responsiveness
Spontaneous breathing
Palpable pulse
Precautions for AED Therapy
The AED algorithm is not designed to handle erratic spiking problems caused
by a properly or improperly functioning pacemaker. In patients with cardiac
pacemakers, the HeartStart XLT may have reduced sensitivity and not detect
all shockable rhythms.
NOTE
AED mode is not intended for use on children less than 8 years of age. For
children older than 8 years, the American Heart Association recommends that
standard operating procedures for AEDs be followed. American Heart Asso-
ciation Guidelines 2000 for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency
Cardiovascular Care. Dallas, Texas; AHA; 2000"
Indications for Manual Defibrillation Therapy
Asynchronous defibrillation is the initial treatment for ventricular fibrillation
and ventricular tachycardia, in patients who are pulseless and unresponsive.
Synchronous defibrillation is indicated for termination of atrial fibrillation.
The SMART Biphasic waveform utilized in the HeartStart XLT
Defibrillator/Monitor has undergone clinical testing demonstrating its
effectiveness for cardioversion of atrial fibrillation.
The SMART Biphasic waveform utilized in the HeartStart XLT has under-
gone clinical testing in adults. These trials support the waveform’s effective-
ness for defibrillation of ventricular tachyarrhythmias at 150J.
In manual mode operation, the HeartStart XLT incorporates some user select-
able lower energy levels that were not used in the clinical trials.

Noninvasive Pacing Therapy
Contraindications for Manual Defibrillation Therapy
Asynchronous defibrillation therapy is contraindicated in patients that exhibit
one or any combination of the following:
1
Responsiveness
Spontaneous breathing
Palpable pulse
Precautions for Manual Defibrillation Therapy
Defibrillating asystole can inhibit the recovery of natural pacemakers in the
heart and completely eliminate any chance of recovery. Asystole should not
be routinely shocked.
Noninvasive Pacing Therapy
The HeartStart XLT provides noninvasive transcutaneous pacing by deliver-
ing a monophasic, electrical stimulus to the heart. This stimulus is intended to
cause cardiac depolarization and myocardial contraction. The emergency care
provider selects the stimulus current and rate settings. The energy is delivered
through multifunction defib electrode pads applied to the patient’s bare chest.
Indications
Noninvasive pacing is one method of treating patients with symptomatic
bradycardia. It can also be helpful in patients with asystole, if performed
early.
Contraindications
Noninvasive pacing is contraindicated in the treatment of ventricular fibrilla-
tion. Noninvasive pacing in the presence of severe hypothermia may be con-
traindicated.

SpO2 Monitoring
SpO Monitoring
2
A pulse oximeter is a noninvasive device that indicates the oxygen saturation
(SpO ) of arterial blood. This measurement is obtained through a probe that
2
directs red and near infrared light through arterial beds. Hemoglobin absorbs
these lights differently when it is bound with oxygen. Pulse oximetry mea-
sures this difference and translates the measurement into a saturation percent-
age that is displayed as an SpO reading.
2
Indications
SpO monitoring is indicated for use when it is beneficial to assess a patient’s
2
oxygen saturation level.
Contraindications
None known.
NOTE
Readings should be carefully considered in the presence of certain circum-
stances. Inaccuracies may result from the use of pulse oximeters in the pres-
ence of certain circumstances, such as hemoglobin saturated with compounds
other than oxygen (such as carbon monoxide), hypothermia, hypovolemia,
patient movement, nail polish and excessive ambient light.

Connecting to Power
Connecting to Power
The HeartStart XLT is powered by the M3516A battery. Prior to inserting the
battery, make sure that the battery is charged and has been properly main-
tained (See “Battery Maintenance” on page 11-8). A fully charged battery will
last for about two hours. A second spare charged battery should be kept in the
carrying case at all times.
The HeartStart XLT can also be powered by the M3517A AC Power Module
or the M3518A DC Power Module. However the defibrillator will take longer
to charge when powered by a power module, with the battery absent. The rec-
ommended practice when using a power module is to use the module in con-
junction with a battery. For information on using the power modules, see the
documentation supplied with the modules.
2
NOTE
To save battery capacity, the HeartStart XLT shuts itself off if a patient is not
being monitored and no one has interacted with the device for 10 minutes.
Inserting the Battery
To insert the battery, slide it into the battery receptacle as shown in Figure 2-6.
Then push the battery in until you hear an audible click.

Connecting to Power
Removing the Battery
Before removing the battery, make sure the HeartStart XLT is powered off.
Then, to remove the battery, press the black battery eject button and pull the
battery out, as shown in Figure 2-7.
Figure 2-7 Removing the Battery
Low Battery Warning
The message /RZꢃ%DWWHU\ is displayed on the HeartStart XLT when the battery
is low and needs recharging. This message indicates that the battery has suffi-
cient remaining capacity to provide only about ten minutes of monitoring time
and six shocks before the HeartStart XLT shuts off. Replace the battery as
soon as possible.
If the power is off for less than 2 minutes, while you change the battery, the
HeartStart XLT assumes that you are continuing to treat the same patient. It
continues to store data on the Data Card and append events to the existing
Event Summary. Alarms set prior to the power loss remain active.
If power remains off for more than 2 minutes, the HeartStart XLT assumes
you are treating a different patient and assigns a new incident number. A new
Event Summary begins with the next event.

Using a Data Card
Using a Data Card
Use of a Data Card is optional; the defibrillator will power up without a Data
Card inserted. If you would like to collect patient information on a Data Card,
on.
CAUTION
Inserting or removing the data card while the defibrillator is on can corrupt
the Data Card and prevent the unit from powering on again. If this occurs, see
Table 12-3, Troubleshooting Tips.
2
The recommended practice is to use one Data Card per patient. Once a Data
Card fills, recording stops; a second Data Card may not be inserted for the
current incident, because the device will only allow the use of one Data Card
per incident. Data Cards hold up to two hours of patient information.
Multiple incidents can be recorded on a single Data Card. Each incident is
assigned a unique incident number.
Patient data from a Philips M3510A Data Card may be downloaded to a
HeartStart Event Review Data Management system. HeartStart Event Review
also allows you to erase patient data from a Data Card, allowing the card to be
reused for another patient.
It’s recommended that you use a designated Data Card to configure one or
more defibrillators/monitors.
CAUTION
Use only the M3510A Data Card. These cards are specifically formatted to
work with your Philips defibrillator. Generic cards, or other types of cards
(such as modems) will not work, and may cause the defibrillator to
malfunction.

Overview
Overview
An overview of the AED Mode defibrillation process is shown in Figure 3-1.
The process begins only after you have:
assessed that the patient is unresponsive, not breathing, and pulseless,
and
prepared for defibrillation by attaching pads and inserting a Data
Card (if desired).
Then you are ready to turn the HeartStart XLT on. The defibrillation process
is dependent upon the configuration of your HeartStart XLT, as described in
the following paragraphs.
Defibrillation (with the default configuration)
In its default configuration, the defibrillation process is:
Press the On button.

The HeartStart XLT checks to see if the pads patient cable and multi-
function defib electrode pads are properly connected. If either con-
nection is compromised, you are prompted to fix the problem.

After the first shock is delivered, the HeartStart XLT automatically
begins analyzing the ECG and the process repeats until a shock series
is complete or no shock is advised. At this point, you are prompted to
check the patient.

Overview
Defibrillation (with a modified configuration)
Chapter 10 describes, in detail, the configurable parameters for AED Mode.
Three parameters significantly impact the defibrillation process. They are:
Device Initiated Analysis - initiates ECG analysis when the HeartStart XLT
is first turned on. The default configuration setting is On. If you choose to set
$1$/<=(
this parameter to 2II, you need to press
to initiate analysis in step 2
of the defibrillation process.
Automatic Re-analysis - initiates ECG analysis in between shocks within a
shock series. The default configuration setting is 2Q. If you choose to set this
$1$/<=(
parameter to 2II, you need to press
to initiate analysis in between
shocks within a shock series (i.e. after the first and second shock of a three
shock series).
Rhythm Monitoring - monitors the ECG for potentially shockable rhythms
when the HeartStart XLT is not analyzing, defibrillating, or paused. The
default setting is 2QꢅꢃIf you choose to set this parameter to 2II, the HeartStart
XLT will not look for potentially shockable rhythms during these idle times.
Idle times also include:
power on, when Device Initiated Analysis is off.
in between shocks within a shock series, when Auto Re-analysis is
off.
If Rhythm Monitoring is off, you need to observe the patient during idle times

4 Monitoring the ECG
The HeartStart XLT can be used for short or long-term ECG monitoring. The
ECG monitoring function allows you to monitor through:
multifunction defib electrode pads, or
3- or 5-lead ECG monitoring electrodes, as configured.
When the HeartStart XLT is turned on, the ECG acquired through pads is
shown on the display. ECG monitoring allows you to continue to monitor
through the pads or to select a lead from an alternate ECG source (3- or 5-
lead). ECG monitoring also displays the heart rate (HR) and allows you to set
HR alarms.
ECG monitoring is always active in Manual Mode. In AED Mode, ECG mon-
itoring is only active if /HDGꢃ6HOHFWꢃis configured to on (the default is off).
A fully charged battery provides approximately 2.7 hours of continuous mon-
itoring.
This chapter describes how to apply monitoring electrodes, select the lead to
monitor, and set a heart rate (HR) alarm. To apply multifunction defib elec-
trode pads, follow the directions on the pads packaging. For information on
printing, storing, and retrieving patient information acquired while monitor-
ing, see Chapter 9.

NOTE
If you need to connect the ECG cable to the HeartStart XLT or configure the
HeartStart XLT to use the optional 5-lead monitoring cable, see Chapter 10.

Applying Monitoring Electrodes
Applying Monitoring Electrodes
Proper application and placement of electrodes is essential for reliable moni-
toring. Good contact between the electrode and the skin reduces the effects of
motion artifact and signal interference.
To apply electrodes:
1. Identify the appropriate electrode sites. (See Figure 4-1.)
2. Shave the electrode sites or clip hair, if necessary.
3. Clean and abrade the skin at the electrode sites.
4. Dry the skin at the electrode sites.
5. Open a new package of M2202A Radio-Translucent Monitoring Elec-
trodes; verify that the "Use Before" date has not passed.
6. Snap the lead wires onto the electrodes.
7. Apply the electrodes by peeling them, one at a time, from the protective
backing and sticking them firmly to the patient’s skin. Press around the
entire edge of each electrode to ensure that they are secure. Make sure the
lead wires do not pull on the electrodes.
WARNING
NOTE
Be sure that the electrodes do not come in contact with other conductive materials,
especially when connecting or disconnecting the electrodes to/from the patient.
If monitoring for long periods of time, new monitoring electrodes and
multifunction defib electrode pads may need to be applied periodically. Refer
to the manufacturer’s documentation for how often to replace the monitoring
electrodes or defib pads.

5 Monitoring SpO2
Pulse oximetry is a noninvasive method of continuously measuring oxygen
saturation (SpO ) in arterial blood. The resultant SpO reading indicates the
2
2
percentage of hemoglobin molecules in the arterial blood which are saturated
with oxygen. SpO monitoring is one of the tools available to assist in assess-
2
ing a patient’s cardiac and respiratory systems. This chapter explains how
pulse oximetry works and describes how to use the HeartStart XLT to monitor
SpO
2.
SpO monitoring is always available in Manual Mode (if the option is pur-
2
chased). In AED Mode, SpO monitoring is only available if SpO is config-
2
2
ured to 2Q.
For information on printing, storing, and retrieving patient information
acquired while monitoring, see Chapter 9.
WARNING
Do not rely solely on SpO readings; assess the patient at all times. SpO readings
2
2
may be inaccurate in the presence of significant levels of carboxyhemoglobin or
methemoglobin, in patients with restricted blood flow to the extremities (such as
those in severe shock or hypothermia), or in the presence of excessive motion.

Understanding Pulse Oximetry
Understanding Pulse Oximetry
A pulse oximetry sensor sends light through patient tissue to a receiver on the
other side of the sensor. As Figure 5-1 shows, light emitting diodes transmit
red and infrared light through peripheral areas of the body, such as a finger.
Figure 5-1 Pulse Oximetry Sensor
LED
Photodetector
A photodetector positioned opposite the light emitting diodes compares light
absorption before and after pulsation. The amount of light getting through
reflects the blood flow in the arterioles. This measurement of light absorption
during pulsation is translated into an oxygen saturation percentage and an
SpO value is displayed.
2
For accurate SpO measurements, the following conditions must apply:
2
The patient must have perfusion in that extremity.
The light emitter and the photodetector must be directly opposite each
other.
All of the light from the emitter must pass through the patient’s tissue.
The sensor site should be free of vibration and excessive motion.
Power cables should be kept away from the sensor cable and connec-
tor.

Selecting a Sensor
The most important factor when selecting a sensor is the position of the light
emitting diodes in relation to the photodetector; when a sensor is applied, the
diodes and the photodetector must be opposite each other. Sensors are
designed for patients within a specific weight range and for specific sites. Be
sure to:
Select a sensor appropriate for the patient’s weight.
Select a sensor site with adequate perfusion.
Avoid application to sites with edematous tissue.
Reusable Sensors
Reusable sensors may be reused on different patients after they have been
cleaned and disinfected (see the manufacturer’s instructions supplied with the
sensor).
Disposable Sensors
Disposable sensors should be used only once and then discarded. They can be
relocated to a different application site on the patient if the first location does
not give the desired results. Disposable sensors must not be reused on differ-
ent patients.
Semi-disposable Sensors
Semi-disposable sensors can be reused, but the adhesive wrap must be dis-
carded after each use. Semi-disposable sensors are recommended for single-
patient use only.

Applying the Sensor
Applying the Sensor
Follow the manufacturer’s directions for applying and using the sensor, mak-
ing sure to observe any warnings or cautions. For the best results:
Make sure the sensor is dry.
If the patient is moving, secure the sensor cable loosely to the patient.
Avoid excessive pressure at the sensor site; ensure that circulation is
not obstructed.
Keep power cables away from the sensor cable and connection.
Avoid placing the sensor in an environment with bright lights (if nec-
essary, cover the sensor with opaque material).
Avoid placing the sensor on any extremity with an arterial catheter,
blood pressure cuff, or intravascular venous infusion line.
WARNING
WARNING
Failure to apply the sensor properly may reduce the accuracy of the SpO measur-
ment.
2
Inspect the sensor application site at least every two hours for changes in skin qual-
ity, correct optical alignment, and proper sensor application. If skin quality is com-
promised, change the sensor site. More frequent checking may be required due to an
individual patient’s condition.

8 Pacing
Noninvasive transcutaneous pacing is a Manual Mode function that is used to
deliver paced pulses to the heart. Paced pulses are delivered through multi-
function defib electrode pads applied to the patient’s bare chest.
This chapter explains the pacing options and describes how to perform
pacing.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Demand Mode Versus Fixed Mode
Demand Mode Versus Fixed Mode
The HeartStart XLT can deliver paced pulses in either demand or fixed mode.
In demand mode, the pacer only delivers paced pulses when the patient’s
heart rate is lower than the selected pacing rate.
In fixed mode, the pacer delivers paced pulses at the selected rate.
Monitoring During Pacing
Multifunction defib electrodes pads can not be used to monitor the ECG and
deliver paced pulses simultaneously. The HeartStart XLT always uses the 3-
or 5-lead ECG cable and monitoring electrodes as the source of ECG during
pacing.
In demand mode, ECG electrodes must be used, because the HeartStart XLT
uses the R-wave detection from this monitoring source to determine if a paced
pulse should be delivered.
In fixed mode, ECG electrodes may or may not be used; however, an ECG
will only be displayed if ECG monitoring electrodes are used.
WARNING
WARNING
Use demand mode pacing whenever possible. Use fixed mode pacing when motion
artifact or other ECG noise makes R-wave detection unreliable.
Heart rate displays and alarms function during pacing, but they can be unreliable.
Observe the patient closely while pacing. Do not rely on heart rate alarms or the
indicated heart rate as a measure of the patient’s perfusion status.

9 Storing, Retrieving & Printing
This chapter describes how the HeartStart XLT creates a patient record, called
an Event Summary, for later retrieval and printing. It covers how to mark
events for storage in the Event Summary, as well as how to print individual
events as they occur.
Overview
The HeartStart XLT automatically creates an Event Summary for each patient.
The Event Summary is stored in the HeartStart XLT’s internal memory and on
a Data Card (if one is used).
The internal Event Summary stores up to 300 pieces of critical information,
called events, and 50 ECG strips (11 seconds each). Events include things
such as charging, shocks, and alarm violations. In addition, you trigger an

or
.
Strip
Storage on a Data Card is limited only by available space on the card. In addi-
tion to storing all of the events that occur, a continuous copy of the displayed
ECG and Patient Contact Impedance is also stored.

You can print the internal Event Summary at any time. You can also configure
the HeartStart XLT to print individual events automatically as they occur and,
of course, you can activate printing of individual events and patient informa-

To print the Event Summary stored on the Data Card, the information must
first be downloaded to the HeartStart Event Review Data Management
system. Refer to the HeartStart Event Review Instructions for Use for instruc-

Creating a Patient Record
Creating a Patient Record
The HeartStart XLT creates an Event Summary patient record for each new
patient. Each record is assigned a unique incident number. The HeartStart
XLT keeps the Event Summary in its internal memory until you begin caring
for a new patient. It assumes that:
Table 9-2 Patient Record Summary
If:
Then:
Power is off for more than 2 minutes
and a new event is recorded
You are caring for a new patient. The
last internal Event Summary is deleted;
a new Event Summary is started and a
new incident record is created on the
Data Card.
Power is off less than 2 minutes
You are continuing to care for the same
patient. Additional events are appended
to the Event Summary; the annotation
"Continued Use" is printed on the
Event Summary.
The Continued Use feature allows you to change batteries or shut the Heart-
Start XLT off briefly (for 2 minutes), while preserving the current patient
record. Events recorded after the power interruption are appended to the
patient record. Continued use also preserves alarm settings.

sealed lead acid battery. Battery maintenance begins when you receive a new
battery and continues throughout the life of the battery. Detailed information
on battery care is provided in the application note “About Sealed Lead Acid
Batteries,” that came with your HeartStart XLT.
Table 11-2 lists battery maintenance activities and when they should be per-
formed.
Table 11-2 Battery Maintenance Activities
Activity:
When to Perform:
Perform a visual inspection
Charge the battery
Daily, as part of the Shift/System Check.
Upon receipt, after each use, and when the
message /RZꢃ%DWWHU\ is displayed.
Perform a Battery Capacity Test
Store the battery appropriately

When not in use.
Charging Batteries
You may charge batteries while they are in either the HeartStart XLT or the
M3506A Battery Charger Adapter, by connecting the device with the battery
to the M3517A AC Power Module.
Refer to the charging procedures provided in the operating instructions for the
power module(s) you use. Batteries charge to 90% of their capacity in about
2.5 hours. It then takes about 12 more hours to reach a fully charged state.
o
o
o
Batteries should be charged at temperature between 10 C (50 F) and 30 C
o
(86 F) for maximum battery life.

Battery Maintenance
Battery Capacity
A fully charged M3516A battery, operating at room temperature, provides
greater than 2.7 hours of monitoring or more than 50, 200-joule charge-shock
cycles.
11
Battery Life-Expectancy
Life-expectancy of a battery depends on the frequency and duration of use.
When properly maintained and stored, the life-expectancy of a battery is
about 2 years. For more aggressive use models, life-expectancy may be less.
Storing Batteries
Batteries should be used regularly and rotated to distribute the use evenly.
When storing batteries, make sure that the battery terminals do not come in
contact with metallic objects.
Batteries should not be stored without charging for more than one month, if
installed in the defibrillator, or more than three months, if not installed in the
o
o
o
o
defibrillator. Storage at temperatures between 15 C (59 F) and 30 C (86 F) is
recommended to maximize life-expectancy.
o
o
CAUTION
Storing at temperatures above 35 C (95 F) for extended periods of time will
significantly reduce a battery’s life-expectancy.
Discarding Batteries
Batteries should be discarded two years after the first Test Date (as written on
the battery’s back label), or sooner, if there are visual signs of damage or if
they fail the Battery Capacity Test. Batteries should be discarded in an envi-
ronmentally safe manner. Properly dispose of batteries according to local reg-
ulations.
WARNING
Do not disassemble, puncture, or incinerate batteries. Be careful not to short the
battery terminals because this could result in a fire hazard.

Clinical Performance Summary - Defibrillation
Clinical Performance Summary - Defibrillation
An international, multicenter, prospective, randomized, clinical study was
conducted to assess the effectiveness of the SMART Biphasic waveform in
out-of-hospital sudden cardiac arrests (SCAs), as compared to monophasic
waveforms. The primary objective of the study was to compare the percent of
patients with ventricular fibrillation (VF) as the initial monitored rhythm that
were defibrillated in the first series of three shocks or less.
This section summarizes the methods and results of this study.
Methods
Victims of out-of-hospital SCA were prospectively enrolled in four emer-
gency medical service (EMS) systems. Responders used either 150J SMART
Biphasic AEDs or 200-360J monophasic waveform AEDs. A sequence of up
to three defibrillation shocks were delivered. For the biphasic AEDs, there
was a single energy output of 150J for all shocks. For monophasic AEDs, the
shock sequence was 200, 200, 360J. Defibrillation was defined as termination
of VF for at least five seconds, without regard to hemodynamic factors.
Results
Randomization to the use of monophasic or SMART Biphasic automatic
external defibrillators (AEDs) was done in 338 SCAs from four emergency
medical service systems. VF was observed as the first monitored rhythm in
115 patients. The biphasic and monophasic groups for these 115 patients were
similar in terms of age, sex, weight, primary structural heart disease, cause or
location of arrest, and bystanders witnessing the arrest or performing CPR.
The 150J SMART Biphasic waveform defibrillated 98% of VF patients in the
first series of three shocks or less, compared with 69% of patients treated with
monophasic waveform shocks. Outcomes are summarized in Table 13-3.

Conclusion
The 150J SMART Biphasic waveform defibrillated at higher rates than 200-
360J monophasic waveforms, resulting in more patients achieving return of
spontaneous circulation (ROSC) (p=0.01). EMS system outcomes of survival
discharge were not significantly different statistically. However, patients
resuscitated with the lower energy SMART Biphasic waveform were more
likely to have good cerebral performance (CPC, cerebral performance cate-
gory) (p=0.04).

Clinical Performance Summary - Cardioversion
Clinical Performance Summary - Cardioversion
An international, multicenter, prospective, double-blinded, randomized, clini-
cal trial was conducted to assess the effectiveness of the SMART Biphasic
waveform in treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF), as compared to monophasic
waveforms. The primary objective of the study was to determine the required
energy for cardioversion of AF using the SMART Biphasic waveform, as
compared with a monophasic damped sine waveform.
This section summarizes the methods and results of this study.
Methods
Patients enrolled for this study were adults scheduled for elective cardiover-
sion of AF at one of 11 clinical sites. Clinicians used both a defibrillator deliv-
ering the SMART Biphasic waveform, and one delivering a monophasic
waveform. A sequence of up to five shocks was administered: four with the
initial defibrillator, and a fifth cross-over shock was delivered with the other
defibrillator if necessary. The sequence of energy settings was 100J, 150J,
200J through the first three shocks on either type of defibrillator. A fourth
shock, if necessary, was delivered at 200J if the initial defibrillator was bipha-
sic, and at 360J if the initial defibrillator was monophasic. The cross-over
shock was 360J monophasic if the initial defibrillator was biphasic, and 200J
biphasic if the initial defibrillator was monophasic. Successful cardioversion
was defined as the occurrence of two P waves uninterrupted by atrial fibrilla-
tion within 30 seconds of the shock.
Results
Randomization to the use of monophasic or SMART Biphasic defibrillators
was done in 212 elective cardioversions involving 210 patients at eleven clin-
ical sites in the United States and Europe. Of these, 203 results met the proto-
col criteria for inclusion in this analysis. The biphasic and monophasic
groups were similar in terms of age, sex, weight, current medical history,
cause of heart disease, and estimated ejection fraction.

Clinical Performance Summary - Cardioversion
The 150J SMART Biphasic waveform successfully converted far more
patients with an initial 100J shock (60% compared with 22% for the
monophasic waveform), and successfully converted patients at least as well
with a maximum energy of 200J as the monophasic did with its maximum
energy of 360J (91% compared to 85% for the monophasic waveform). Over-
all, the biphasic waveform required fewer shocks (1.7, compared to 2.8 for the
monophasic waveform) and lower delivered energy (217J, compared to 548J
for the monophasic waveform). Outcomes are summarized in , Table 13-4.

Clinical Performance Summary - Cardioversion
Conclusion
The SMART Biphasic waveform cardioverted at higher rates than the
monophasic damped sine waveform at each step of the protocol, although the
cumulative biphasic rate after 4 shocks was not significantly different from
the monophasic rate. Tissue damage was more pronounced in the monophasic
population.

Safety Considerations
Safety Considerations
The following general warnings and cautions apply to use of the HeartStart
XLT. Additional warning and cautions specific to a particular feature are pro-
vided in the appropriate section.
WARNING
WARNING
WARNING
The HeartStart XLT is not intended to be deployed in settings or situations that pro-
mote use by untrained personnel. Operation by untrained personnel can result in
injury or death.
shock may result in a rhythm that was analyzed as shockable converting spontane-
ously to non-shockable and could result in inappropriate delivery of a shock.
Use only the multifunction defib electrode pads, battery, and accessories listed in
“Supplies & Accessories” on page 11-18. Substitutions may cause the HeartStart
XLT to function improperly.
13
WARNING
WARNING
Use multifunction defib electrode pads prior to their expiration date. Discard pads
after use. Do not reuse pads.
In AED Mode, the multifunction defib electrode pads must be in the anterior-anterior
position as shown on the packaging. The HeartStart XLT was not designed to assess
data acquired from pads in an anterior-posterior position.

Safety Considerations
WARNING
Do not allow multifunction defib electrode pads to touch each other or to touch
other ECG monitoring electrodes, lead wires, dressings, etc. Contact with metal
objects may cause electrical arcing and patient skin burns during defibrillation and
may divert current away from the heart.
WARNING
During defibrillation, air pockets between the skin and multifunction defib electrode
pads may cause patient skin burns. To help prevent air pockets, make sure the pads
completely adhere to the skin. Do not use dried out pads; do not open pads package
until just prior to use.
WARNING
WARNING
Never touch the patient or any equipment connected to the patient (including the
bed or gurney) during defibrillation.
Do not operate the HeartStart XLT in standing water. When using the HeartStart XLT
in wet environments, make sure the Data Card door is securely shut.
WARNING
WARNING
Do not immerse, or pour fluids on, any portion of the HeartStart XLT.
Do not use the HeartStart XLT in a flammable or oxygen-rich atmosphere. This can
cause an explosion hazard.
WARNING
Avoid connecting the patient to several devices at once. Leakage current limits may
be exceeded. Do not use a second defibrillator on the patient while pacing with the
HeartStart XLT.

Safety Considerations
WARNING
Avoid contact between the patient and conductive fluids and/or metal objects, such
as the gurney. Contact with metal objects could cause unintentional current path-
ways.

WARNING
CAUTION
Operating the HeartStart XLT or its accessories in conditions outside the environ-
mental specifications can result in device or accessory malfunction.
Avoid exposing the display to direct sunlight on a hot day. Overheating can occur and
cause the display to black out, making the HeartStart XLT temporarily unusable.
Medical electrical equipment which does not incorporate defibrillator protection
should be disconnected during defibrillation.
Electric shock hazards exist internally. Do not remove assembly screws. Refer ser-
vicing to qualified personnel.

Electromagnetic Compatibility
Electromagnetic Compatibility
When using the M3500B defibrillator/monitor (with or without the M3517A
AC Charger), electromagnetic compatibility with surrounding devices should
be assessed.
A medical device can either generate or receive electromagnetic interference.
Testing for electromagnetic compatibility EMC) of the M3500B with and
without the appropriate accessories has been performed according to the inter-
national standard for EMC for medical devices (IEC 60601-1-2). This IEC
standard has been adopted in Europe as the European Norm (EN 60601-1-2).
The EMC standards describe tests for both emitted and received interference.
Emission tests deal with interference generated by the device being tested.
According to the EMC standards, the M3517A AC Power Module does not
generate interference.
WARNING
Radio frequency (RF) interference from nearby transmitting devices may degrade
performance of the HeartStart XLT defibrillator/monitor. Electromagnetic compati-
bility with surrounding devices should be assessed prior to using the defibrillator.
Reducing Electromagnetic Interference
The M3500B defibrillator/monitor and M3517A AC Charger are susceptible
to interference from other RF energy sources and continuous, repetitive,
power line bursts. Examples of other sources of RF interference are medical
devices, cellular products, information technology equipment and radio/tele-
vision transmission. Should interference be encountered, as demonstrated by
artifact on the ECG or dramatic variations in SpO values, attempt to locate
2
the source. Assess:
Is the interference intermittent or constant?
Does the interference occur only in certain locations?
Does the interference occur only when in close proximity to certain
medical devices?
Does the SpO value change dramatically when the M3517A AC
2
Charger is unplugged?

Electromagnetic Compatibility
Once the source is located, attempt to attenuate the EMC coupling path by
distancing the defibrillator from the source as much as possible. If assistance
is needed, call your local service representative.
Restrictions for Use
Artifact on the ECG caused by electromagnetic interference should be evalu-
ated by a physician or physician authorized personnel to determine if it will
negatively impact patient diagnosis or treatment.
Immunity Level
The EMC standards state that manufacturers of patient-coupled equipment
must specify immunity levels for their systems. It is recognized that the Heart-
Start XLT defibrillator/monitor is designed to receive and amplify low level
signals in the same bandwidth as the interference.
Immunity is defined in the standard as the ability of a system to perform with-
out degradation in the presence of an electromagnetic disturbance. Degrada-
tion in ECG quality is a qualitative assessment which can be subjective.
13
Caution should, therefore, be taken in comparing immunity levels of different
devices. The criteria used for degradation is not specified by the standard and
may vary with the manufacturer.
NOTE
For additional information about compliance with the EMC standards, please
see the Philips Medical web site at http://www.medical.philips.com/cms and
follow the regulatory link.
