Primedic XD5 Series Defibrillator Monitor Portable Emergency Defibrillation Device

Primedic XD5 Series Defibrillator Monitor Portable Emergency Defibrillation Device

Introduction

The Primedic XD5 series is an all-in-one defibrillator-monitor that integrates multiple functions, including multi-parameter monitoring, manual synchronized/asynchronous defibrillation, optional external pacing, and intelligent AED analysis. The series also utilizes the iWAVE algorithm, designed to analyze heart rhythms during CPR chest compressions. Built upon Primedic’s CCD biphasic waveform technology, the system addresses the limitations of traditional defibrillation pulses,which can deliver excessive energy to low impedance patients and insufficient energy to high-impedance patients,by automatically adjusting the output based on the patient's transthoracic impedance. This approach ensures a more consistent and controllable energy dose and helps lower peak current, thereby reducing the risk of myocardial injury. With a maximum energy output of 360 Joules, it is capable of treating refractory ventricular fibrillation.

Advantages

1. Delivers safer, more controlled defibrillation. The CCD biphasic waveform automatically compensates for the patient's impedance, producing a smooth energy output without spikes.

2. Cuts charging time to seconds. The device charges to 200J in under 6 seconds, which means the interval between recognizing a shockable rhythm and delivering the shock is kept to a minimum.

3. Manual asynchronous defibrillation, synchronized cardioversion, and semi-automatic AED mode can be switched with a single button press. In AED mode, the device analyzes the rhythm automatically and provides step by step Chinese voice prompts, along with CPR pacing guidance to help standardize chest compressions

4. The 8-inch TFT color display remains clear and legible even in bright light and can simultaneously show dual-channel ECG waveforms. The device comes standard with 6-lead ECG monitoring and supports expansion modules for SpO₂, NIBP, and EtCO₂ monitoring, integrating defibrillation and continuous monitoring capabilities into a single unit.

Instructions for Use

1. Keep the device in Manual (MAN) mode.

2. Remove the pair of electrode paddles and apply conductive gel evenly.

3. Place the paddles in the standard positions: the sternal paddle in the 2nd to 3rd intercostal space below the right clavicle, and the apical paddle in the 5th intercostal space along the left mid-axillary line.

4. Press firmly (applying at least 6 kg of pressure) to eliminate any air gaps between the paddles and the skin.

5. Select the energy level: the initial energy for adults is 200 J, which can be increased to 300 J; for refractory ventricular fibrillation (VF), the 6. energy can be increased to 360 J; for children, the energy is adjusted to between 50 J and 150 J based on body weight.

6. Press the charge button on the paddle handle—charging to 200 J takes less than 6 seconds, and a continuous tone indicates that charging is complete.

7. Shout "Clear" to confirm that no one is touching the patient, the bed, or any metal equipment, then simultaneously press both discharge buttons.

8. Immediately begin 2 minutes of CPR, then check the ECG waveform and repeat defibrillation if necessary.

Note

Only professionally trained clinical personnel are allowed to operate manual defibrillation and pacing functions. AED mode can be used by trained first aid personnel, but standardized operation procedures must be followed strictly.

Inspect the device appearance, battery power, cable integrity and accessory validity before each use. Stop operation immediately if equipment failure or abnormal energy output is detected.

Ensure the patient’s body keeps dry during defibrillation. Keep the electrode contact area clean and flat to avoid poor contact which may cause treatment failure or local skin burns.
