Problems solved by technology

Second, VF is very rare in this population, so the most skilled rescuers are not familiar with proper dosage levels
[0009] The disadvantage of the Broselow Pediatric Emergency Strap is that it is used infrequently and is a self-contained piece of equipment that must be stored and readily available in an emergency

Embodiment Construction

[0025] now refer to Figure 4 ,exist Figure 4 An electrode lead set 100 for a cardiac treatment device, such as a defibrillator or an ECG monitor, is illustrated in , which integrates an instruction plate 140 with the lead set 100 . Electrode lead set 100 includes one or more adhesive skin electrodes 120 that, when applied to the patient's skin with an adhesive, conduct defibrillation current to the patient. The lead set 100 also includes a connector 130 for connecting the lead set 100 to a cardiac procedure device.

[0026] Lead wires 160 connect each of the electrodes 120 to corresponding pins in the connector 130 . The lead wires are preferably long enough to be suitable for use on patients of various sizes without interfering with other aspects of the rescue. Preferably, the lead wires are three to four feet long and are covered with polymer insulation.

[0027] A placard is an elongated piece of flexible material that is attached to the lead wire along its length. The...

Abstract

A cardiac electrotherapy device is described having an electrode lead set (100) and an instruction placard (140) having a set of medical guidance instructions (210) integrated with the electrode lead wire (160). The medical guidance instructions are printed on an elongated readable surface which is attached along its long edge to the electrode lead wire. The invention is particularly useful during cardiac emergencies involving pediatric or infant patients, whose medical dosage limits may be closely correlated with patient length.

Description

technical field [0001] Aspects of the invention relate generally to cardiac rescue systems for treating adults and young children. More specifically, the present invention integrates a "Broselow" type pediatric belt with defibrillator electrodes for a more effective and precise rescue device. [0002] The invention is particularly applicable to defibrillators / monitors used by medical personnel trained in Advanced Cardiac Life Support. The invention is also applicable to ECG lead sets used on bedside monitors used within hospital emergency rooms or pediatric intensive care units. Background technique [0003] Sudden cardiac death is the leading cause of death in the United States. Most sudden cardiac deaths are due to ventricular fibrillation ("VF"), in which the heart's muscle fibers contract uncoordinatedly, interrupting the normal flow of blood to the body. For VF, the only known treatment is electrical defibrillation, in which electrical impulses are applied to the pat...
