Physio Control LifePak 500-  Battery  Included No Included Pads
FEATURES OF THE LIFEPAK 500 AUTOMATED EXTERNAL DEFIBRILLATOR
The optional and configurable features of the LIFEPAK 500 AED are designed to meet a variety of
protocol needs. Authorized operators of this AED should always use the AED in accordance with local
protocols.
Defibrillation Waveform
The LIFEPAK 500 AED is available with one of two defibrillation waveforms: monophasic or biphasic.
For a description of each defibrillation waveform, refer to page 5-14 and page 5-17. The LIFEPAK 500
AED control and display functions are the same for either defibrillation waveform.
Defibrillation Electrodes
The LIFEPAK 500 AED uses disposable QUIK-COMBO™ pacing/defibrillation/ECG electrodes, with or
without the REDI-PAK™ preconnect system, and FAST-PATCH® disposable defibrillation/ECG
electrodes. The use of these electrodes allows rapid transfer of care to other devices that also use the
same type of Medtronic Physio-Control electrodes.
Infant/Child Reduced Energy Defibrillation Electrodes can be used only with a biphasic LIFEPAK 500
AED that has been modified specifically to accept these electrodes. (Refer to Item 4, Cable Connector
on page 2-3.) Infant/Child Reduced Energy Defibrillation Electrodes are not transferable to manual
defibrillator/monitors.
Automated Operation
The operator controls AED operation with two or three top-panel buttons (ON/OFF, ANALYZE [optional],
and SHOCK). For LIFEPAK 500 AEDs that do not have an ANALYZE button, the AED operates in AUTO
ANALYZE 2 mode (see page 2-9).
The AED guides the operator through operating procedures with a combination of:
• Voice prompts
• Tones
• Flashing LEDs
• Screen messages
The screen messages appear on a two-line liquid crystal display (LCD). Other LCD information
includes:
• Real-time clock
• Cumulative shock counter
• Status and service messages
• CPR countdown timer
Continuous Monitoring
The LIFEPAK 500 AED operates in two modes: ECG analysis and Continuous Patient Surveillance
System (CPSS). During analysis, the AED indicates if it detects a shockable or nonshockable rhythm.
The CPSS, which is active when the AED is not performing an analysis, automatically monitors for a
potentially shockable rhythm.
Motion Detection
The LIFEPAK 500 AED includes a patented system that detects motion. When motion that could distort
the ECG rhythm occurs, the ECG data is automatically excluded from analysis by the motion detection system
