1. Introduction to the Device
1.1 Objective of UseCardiAid is not only a public access defibrillator (PAD), but also an automated external defibrillator (AED). It’s a practical device used for resuscitation of patients over 20 kg and exhibiting acute cardiac arrest due to fibrillation. In these situations, CardiAid can perform the defibrillation. The user is directed with clear and specific instructions during resuscitation. The device records the ECG of the patient automatically and prepares an electro-shock when required. The user is asked to press the shock key to deliver the shock. Use of the CardiAid is only for the purposes indicated here.
1.2 OperationCardiAid is developed for the application of basic life support and defibrillation and used directly at the emergency site. CardiAid is designed for patients weighing over 20 kg
1.3 User QualificationIn some countries the CardiAid may only be used by persons with the following qualifications:
• Trained in basic life support and the use of automatic defibrillators
• Instructed about operating CardiAid from CardiaTech authorized persons
In most countries specially developed public access defibrillators (PAD’s) like CardiAid can be used by anyone who is present when someone suffers a sudden cardiac arrest.
8
1.4 Description of the FunctionsCardiAid is a lightweight and compact device with an ergonomic design. Distinct visual and acoustic instructions direct the user clearly. Therefore people with limited medical training can perform basic life support with CardiAid after a short briefing.
Visual and Acoustic Instructions for the User
Visual and acoustic support for the user contains application images and verbal instructions supported with light diodes. The CardiAid starts giving verbal instructions as soon as its cover is opened and directs the user in the resuscitation procedure step by step. At the same time lit application diagrams clearly indicate the stages during the resuscitation process in which the patient can or cannot be touched.
Metronome Function
In the basic life support phase, the metronome function becomes activated and transmits a metronome acoustic signal at a 100 pulse per minute frequency. Perform the heart massage in accordance with the rhythm of this signal tone. A verbal instruction is heard after 30 signal tones: “Now give 2 mouth to mouth breaths”. For chest massage, you have few seconds after hearing the verbal instruction “Now give
30 times chest compressions”. Then the device gives 30 signal tones again. This consecutive process continues until basic life support stage ends and the application diagram in the middle (“Do not touch the patient”) lights up. If the Information key is pressed during basic life support stage, device information can be heard. The timer for basic life support continues in the background.
9
ECG and its Analysis
When electrodes are applied correctly to the patient, CardiAid starts immediate ECG analysis. ECG record and analysis continues until the device is turned off. The Defibrillator is turned off by unplugging the electrodes and closing the cover of the device.
Warning!
Warning!
Closing the cover of the device when electrodes are plugged in does not stop the operation.
Defibrillation
When the ECG analysis shows a Rhythm that can be treated by electro shock (Ventricular tachycardia (VT) or Ventricular fibrillation (VF) ) the CardiAid will prepare the delivery of a shock. Then it warns the user to press the shock key to apply shock.
Application Documentation
CardiAid records ECG data and incident data. These data then can be analyzed by specialists to define subsequent treatment.
Self-testing
CardiAid performs a periodical self-test each time the cover is opened (when the device is switched on). The status of the device is indicated with lit symbols on the front side of the device.

Recommended separation distances betweenportable and mobile RF communications equipment and the Public Access Defibrillator CardiAid
The Public Access Defibrillator CardiAid is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which the radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The costumer or the user of the Public Access Defibrillator CardiAid can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimal distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the Public Access Defibrillator CardiAid as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in metres (m) can be determined using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.WARNING
1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, higher frequency field is applicable.
NOTE: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE : This guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.

12.2 Pulse FormA pulse form is drawn by applying a fixed maximum current.Myocardium damage typically caused by high electrical currents, with low patient’s impedance are reduced considerably with thispulse form.
Pulse form / shock energy can only be configured by service. Pre-adjustment is as follows:
1. Shock to be applied: low2. Shock to be applied: low3. And other shocks to be applied: high
Function Principle
If the current exceeds the specified value, current transmission is interrupted. Current continues to flow to the patient with inductivity in connection path. However, the current falls gradually. If the specified current value exceeds 1 amp, current transmission re-starts. In this way, current supplied to the patient rises again. It leads into s saw tooth impulse.
Proportion of supplied electrical current (integral of current in time) between 2nd (negative) and 1st (positive) phases is 0,38 on average. This value is determined as optimal in clinical studies.

Impedance Dependence
For safety reasons, a current of maximum 2000 Volt are used. Current resulting from this depending on the patient’s impedance is indicated in the following figure:
Energy flow in high patient resistance
Supplying a fixed current beforehand causes a determining effect on supplying energy to the patient. Ohm’s law requires a higher voltage with increasing impedance. Because the voltage enters the supplied energy quadratic, in increasing resistance, the supplied energy also rises considerably. This in turn provides a better treatment in patients with resistance and has a positive effect on decreasing death rate in this patient group.
