Zoll pedipadzll

The ZOLL AED Plus® defibrillator has been approved for defibrillation of pediatric patients with the use of ZOLL's AED Plus pedi-padz® II electrodes. Sudden cardiac arrest rarely strikes a small child. When it does, the American Heart Association recommends the use of an AED that delivers lower, pediatric doses of energy and ZOLL's AED Plus pedi-padz® II electrodes suit the purpose.

Unlike most other AEDs, with pediatric pads attached, the AED Plus uses an ECG rhythm analysis that has been specifically designed and tested with ECGs specific to the pediatric patient population, particularly rhythms such as ventricular and supraventricular tachycardias that are very different from adults.

Finally, Zoll AED Plus device also delivers specific lower energy levels for children. Default energy settings with Zoll AED Plus Pedi-Padz II Electrodes for pediatric defibrillation are: 50 J, 70 J, and 85 J. Energy settings can be configured by the user with the use of ZOLL Administrative Software. While using Zoll AED Plus Pedi-Padz II Electrodes, rescuers can rest assured the energy delivered will be right for the child they are rescuing.
