3 Apply and connect QUIK-COMBO® therapy electrodes
4 Press PACER
5 Confirm placement of the sense marker (q)
is near the middle of each QRS
6 Press RATE
7 Press CURRENT until electrical capture occurs

Noninvasive Pacing
TIPS:
• To minimize artifact, place ECG electrodes far from the therapy electrodes
• Electrical capture is indicated by a wide QRS and a T-wave following the
pace marker
• ECG heart rate shows --- during active pacing
• If an active ECG lead comes off during demand pacing, the device
switches to nondemand pacing and ECG LEADS OFF message appears.
ECG tracing shows --- on screen.
• Press and hold PAUSE button to view patient’s intrinsic rhythm. Pacer will
pace at 25% of the set rate. Release PAUSE to resume pacing at set rate.
This information is based on factory default settings and is an abridged reference for noninvasive pacing. See the LIFEPAK 15 Monitor/Defibrillator

Noninvasive Blood Pressure
TIPS:
•To cancel NIBP in progress, press NIBP
•Patient or other movement during NIBP may cause the cuff to over-inate
•Use of improper cuff size will cause the NIBP reading to be falsely low
(cuff too large) or falsely high (cuff too small)
•To set timer-controlled measurements, rotate SPEED DIAL to outline NIBP
area, select INTERVAL and the desired time

temperature is displayed on the screen.
• Allow up to 3 minutes for probe to equilibrate after placing on patient
• If signal is unstable or dashes (---) are displayed, consider:
1. Probe positioning
2. Cable connections
3. Non-valid temperature
• If TEMP: ACCURACY OUTSIDE LIMITS message appears and value is XXX ,
temperature accuracy check failed. Turn monitor off and on again. If problem
persists, contact qualified service personnel.
