General warnings

• Even if resuscitation is initiated immediately, this does not guarantee that the patient will
survive, even if it is performed optimally. In some cases, the underlying problem causing
the cardiac arrest means that the patient will not survive, despite the best care.
• Patients with serious injuries should not be moved. Without using the LifePad
son (user) should also not move the patient on another ground.
• Rib fractures and other injuries are common, but acceptable consequences of resuscita-
tion given that the alternative is death due to cardiac arrest. After resuscitation, all patients
should be assessed for injuries caused during resuscitation.
• In addition to the above-mentioned consequences, skin abrasions, bruises and wounds
on the chest can often occur during resuscitation. Despite this, do not stop performing the
compressions, but continue CPR until professional help arrives.
• Check the LifePad
es or dangerous areas.
• In the event of a defect, perform the cardiac massage without the assistance of the LifePad
Do not delay or interrupt the start of first aid measures to rectify the defect. Continue to
follow the instructions for carrying out CPR illustrated by the pictograms.
• Even if the device fails, continue cardiac massage at a pressure frequency of at least 100
per minute until clear signs of life are once again perceptible or the emergency doctor takes
over.The pressure must be high enough to achieve a pressure depth on the chest of 50 mm
to 60 mm.
