Caution!
To prevent injuries of the user, the patient and any by-stander, make sure the patient is
not being touched or moved during defibrillation. Do not touch metal objects or equipment
which are in contact with the patient during defibrillation.
Caution!
Apply the electrodes on patient's bare chest as shown on the electrode pads. Applying
electrodes incorrectly may cause faulty analysis of heart rhythm and / or faulty or
inefficient defibrillation.
Caution!
In order to prevent faulty interpretation of ECG data, make sure that the patient is lying
still, not being touched or moved while CardiAid is analysing heart rhythm. Do not perform
basic life support (CPR) during rhythm analysis.
Warning!
Before delivering the electroshock, make sure the patient is disconnected from other
medical devices which do not have defibrillation protection.
Warning!
Although CardiAid is one of the safest devices in its class, remember that wrong
interpretation of heart rhythm may be possible.
Warning!
Make sure that the electrodes are placed firmly to the patient's chest. If not, air between
the patient's skin and electrodes can cause burns.
Electrodes
Caution!
Only use original electrodes supplied with CardiAid. CardiAid CT0207RS and CardiAid
CT0207RF should be used with CardiAid CA-10ES Adult Defibrillation Electrodes or
CardiAid CR-13P Paediatric Electrodes.
Caution!
CardiAid CA-10ES Adult Defibrillation Electrodes should be used for patients older than 8
years or weighing more than 25kg. CardiAid CR-13P Paediatric Electrodes should be used
if the patient is 1 to 8 years old or weighs less than 25kg. Therapy should not be delayed to determine
the exact age or weight of the patient.

Never use electrodes which have damage on the package and / or on the pads. Do not use
electrodes after the expiry date written on the electrode package.
