Product Description
The Zoll AED Plus offers:
  • Real CPR Help for depth and rate of compressions.
  • Help to all victims of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA), even those for whom no shock is advised.
  • A one-piece electrode pad for fast and accurate placement.
  • The simplicity of using consumer lithium camera batteries available from retail stores.
Benefits of Real CPR Help:
  • Not pushing hard enough? The Zoll AED Plus will tell you when to push harder.
  • Pushing hard enough? It will say, "Good compressions."
  • Not pushing fast enough? A metronome will lead you to the right rate.
  • It will even show you the depth of each compression. In real time.
  • Not yet started? The AED Plus will tell you to get started.
  • Compressions stopped? It will tell you to continue.
How CPR Feedback Works:
  • Compression Depth Indicator - to achieve at least a two-inch compression depth, which is critical for high-quality CPR, as detailed in the 2010 American Heart Association (AHA) Guidelines.
  • Compression Rate Indicator - to achieve the recommended compression rate of 100 compressions per minute through a metronome beep that is easy to follow.
  • Release Bar - measures release velocity to determine that rescuers are allowing sufficient time for cardiac filling.
  • Perfusion Performance Indicator (PPI) - integrates compression depth, rate, and interruption times into one visual indicator. Maintaining maximum value (full indicator) provides visual indication of performance to AHA Guidelines.
  • Audio/Message Prompting: Voice and message feedback such as "PUSH HARDER" helps accomplish quality compressions quickly, resulting in a reinforcing message, "GOOD COMPRESSIONS." To minimize CPR idle time, "CONTINUE CPR" is another important feedback reminder.
  • Idle Timer - raises awareness of CPR interruptions by displaying the elapsed time from when the last compression was delivered.
  • Real CPR Help is accomplished with our quick and easy to apply OneStep Electrode Pads, CPR-D-padz, and CPR Stat-padz. There is no compromise to code readiness with cumbersome extra electrodes to manage and position on the patient before you get valuable CPR data.
Real CPR Help
  • Inadequate compression rate and depth are common during CPR. Adult victims need at least 100 compressions per minute and at a depth of at least 2 inches (5 cm). Compressions must be done well to effectively move blood and oxygen.
  • CPR Compressions The ZOLL AED Plus converts compression data instantaneously from the CPR-D-padz and provides an adaptive metronome to help the rescuer with the proper rate and depth, saying "Push harder"or "Good compressions," as needed. It also shows CPR compression depth on the display screen. ZOLL's AED Plus is the only AED that helps the rescuer achieve the correct rate and depth of chest compressions during CPR. No other AED has both these capabilities.
Everything You Need for the Rescue
  • The CPR-D-padz comes complete with a CPR barrier mask, scissors, disposable gloves, a prep razor, a towel, and a moist towelette.
  • The ZOLL AED Plus Intelligent Pediatric Capability includes voice and text prompts that tell rescuers that Pedi-padz II are connected, ensuring that the proper defibrillator electrodes are being used. When a cardiac arrest occurs, the fact is that only half of the victims will need a shock. The other half requires cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
  • The high-current ZOLL Rectilinear Biphasic waveform (RBW) provides more current than the 'high-energy' biphasic others use. This capability is particularly important for the difficult-to-defibrillate, high-impedance patient.
  • High-current Rectilinear Biphasic is the only biphasic waveform that was developed specifically for external defibrillation. Both high-and low-energy biphasic truncated exponential (BTE) waveforms were adapted from internal defibrillation. RBW has been studied extensively in over 7,000 patients and shown to be superior to monophasic.
CPR-D-padz
  • ZOLL's Full-Rescue AEDs feature CPR-D-padz, a one-piece, pre-connected electrode with Real CPR Help feedback.
  • Ordinary AEDs require that the rescuer use two separate electrodes. By using CPR hand placement as the landmark, it is easy to place the CPR-D-padz on the victim quickly. The CPR-D-padz also lasts five years-the longest shelf life of any defibrillator electrode sold today.

Tips Real CPR Help


Real CPR Help technology gives you real-time depth and rate CPR feedback while you deliver cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), providing guidance that can improve CPR quality.

Why Real-Time CPR Feedback Matters

The 2010 American Heart Association Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and Emergency Cardiovascular Care make it clear — in most emergencies, the quality of CPR provided by the rescuer can make the difference between life and death. Yet, even trained professionals often do not perform CPR optimally and can benefit significantly from monitoring and support. A study by Abella et al. shows that audiovisual CPR feedback improves the quality of chest compressions delivered by health care providers.1

CPR-D-padz
One Electrode Pad is Easier than Two

ZOLL's Full-Rescue AEDs feature CPR-D-padz, a one-piece, pre-connected electrode with Real CPR Help feedback.

Ordinary AEDs require that the rescuer use two separate electrodes. By using CPR hand placement as the landmark, it is easy to place the CPR-D-padz on the victim quickly.

Pedi-padz II
The Only Full-Rescue AED with Intelligent Pediatric Capability

The ZOLL AED PlusIntelligent Pediatric Capability includes voice and text prompts that tell rescuers that Pedi-padz II are connected, ensuring that the proper defibrillator electrodes are being used. When a cardiac arrest occurs, the fact is that only half of the victims will need a shock. The other half requires cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).

Separate and specific algorithms for adults and children are used to analyze a victim's heart rhythm. The ZOLL AED Plus can defibrillate children up to eight years of age, using the Pedi-padz II electrodes. Separate energy levels also have been incorporated for pediatric patients. Electronics in the AED Plus adjust defibrillating energy levels automatically so that suitable doses are delivered accurately, when needed. With ECG analysis designed specifically for a pediatric heart rate, coupled with appropriate defibrillation energy levels, the AED Plus can handle both adult and pediatric rescues.

Pedi-padz II electrodes are designed especially for use with the AED Plus, and are also compatible with professional defibrillators, allowing continuity of care. The AED Plus does not rely on a resistor or other hardware in the wires to reduce delivered energy. Anatomical diagrams on the package facilitate proper pad placement.

Faq Public Access Defibrillation and AEDs: Frequently Asked Questions
What is Sudden Cardiac Arrest?

Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) simply means that the heart unexpectedly & abruptly quits beating. This is usually caused by an abnormal heart rhythm called ventricular fibrillation (VF).

Is SCA the same as a heart attack?

No. A heart attack is a condition in which the blood supply to the heart muscle is suddenly blocked, resulting in the death of the heart muscle. Heart attack victims usually (but not always) experience chest pain and usually remain conscious. Heart attacks are serious and sometimes will lead to SCA. However, SCA may occur independently from a heart attack and without warning signs. SCA results in death if not treated immediately.

Who is at risk for SCA?

While the average age of SCA victims is about 65, SCA is unpredictable and can strike anyone, anywhere, anytime.

What is VF?

VF is an abnormal heart rhythm often seen in SCA. This rhythm is caused by an abnormal and very fast electrical activity in the heart. VF is chaotic and unorganized; the heart just quivers and cannot effectively pump blood. VF will be short lived and deteriorate to asystole (a flat line) if not treated promptly.

How is VF treated?

The only effective treatment for VF is an electrical shock called defibrillation. Defibrillation is an electrical current applied to the chest. The electrical current passes through the heart with the goal of stopping the VF and providing an opportunity for the heart's normal electrical system to take control. This current helps the heart reorganize the electrical activity so it can pump blood again. An automated external defibrillator (AED) can defibrillate the heart.

What is an AED?

An AED (automated external defibrillator) is a device that analyzes and looks for shockable heart rhythms, advises the rescuer of the need for defibrillation, and delivers a shock if needed.

Will I hurt the victim by using an AED?

When used on people who are unresponsive and not breathing, the AED is extremely safe. The AED makes shock delivery decisions based upon the victim's heart rhythm, and will only defibrillate a shockable rhythm.

What if I forget the steps for using an AED?

The steps for shocking an SCA victim are simple and straightforward. The AED Plus provides visual and audio prompts required for the entire resuscitation process. The most difficult part is recognizing the need for defibrillation.

Should I perform CPR first or apply electrode pads from the AED?

Do CPR only until the AED arrives. Apply the electrode pads to the victim's bare chest and follow the voice prompts and messages of the AED. It will tell you when to resume CPR.

If defibrillation is so important, why should I do CPR?

CPR provides some circulation of oxygen rich blood to the victim's heart and brain. This circulation delays both brain death and the death of heart muscle. CPR also makes the heart more likely to respond to defibrillation.

Can I be sued using an AED?

To date there has never been a case where someone was held liable for using an AED, but as you know, anyone can be sued. However, most states have passed "Good Samaritan" legislation protecting the lay rescuer from lawsuits.

Can I accidentally shock another rescuer or myself?

AEDs are extremely safe when used properly. The electric shock is programmed to go from one electrode pad to another through the victim's chest. Basic precautions, such a verbally warning others to stand clear and visually checking the area before and during the shock, will virtually ensure the safety of rescuers.

What if the victim has a medication patch on or EKG electrodes on the chest where I want to place the electrode pads?

Never place AED electrode pads directly on top of medication patches, such as nitroglycerin, or EKG patches. Patches should always be removed and the skin wiped dry before placing electrode pads on the skin.

Do I need to remove the electrode pads before performing CPR?

No. The electrode pads remain on throughout the resuscitation and until the victim is transferred to advanced care providers such as the paramedics. If the electrode pads are in their correct locations on the victim's chest, they will not interfere with proper hand placement or compressions.

Should I use the AED if the victim has a pacemaker or is pregnant?

Yes, never withhold AED use in a person with SCA.

Can I defibrillate on a wet surface?

Yes, as long as the usual safety rules are observed. Be sure the victim's chest is wiped dry. Keep the electrode pads away from a damp or conductive surface.

Can I defibrillate on or near a metal surface?

Yes, as long as the usual safety rules are observed. Keep the electrode pads away from contact with the conductive surface. Be sure not to allow anyone to touch the victim when a shock is delivered.

How much of the victim's clothing should be removed to carry out defibrillation?

The chest should be exposed to allow placement of the disposable electrode pads. A woman's bra should be removed. Clothes may need to be cut off.

Why is it so important to be sure that the electrode pads are firmly adhered to a clean, dry chest?

Successful defibrillation requires electricity to flow from one electrode pad to the other through the chest. If the electrode pads are not firmly adhered and there is sweat or another conductive material between the electrode pads, the electricity will be more likely to flow across the chest rather than through it. This will result in ineffective defibrillation and an increased chance of sparks and fire.

Is it okay to place the electrode pads directly on a hairy chest?

Electrode pads must come in direct contact with the skin. If the chest hair is so excessive as to prevent good adhesion of the electrode pad, the hair must be removed quickly.

What if I have a child victim?

You should use pediatric electrode pads, which carry a lower charge to the child in SCA.

After I have successfully defibrillated the victim, do I keep the electrode pads on?

Yes, even after a victim has been successfully defibrillated, he/she is at risk of developing VF again. The AED will continually monitor the victim for the return of VF. If VF is suspected, the AED will automatically begin to analyze victim after two minutes of CPR is complete. The AED should be left on until emergency personnel assume responsibility for the victim.

What if the victim regains a pulse but is not breathing or is breathing slowly?

You should give rescue breaths at a rate of 1 every 5 seconds or 12 per minute.

I used an AED on a SCA victim and the AED always prompted "No Shock Advised". Even with CPR the victim did not survive. Why didn't the AED shock this victim?

Although VF is the most common rhythm in cardiac arrest, it is not the only one. The AED will only shock VF or VT (ventricular tachycardia), which is a very weak but fast heart rhythm. There are other heart rhythms associated with SCA that are not treated with defibrillation shocks. A "no shock advised" message doesn't mean the victim's heart rhythm is back to normal.

I shocked a woman in SCA within minutes after she collapsed. I hear later that she did not survive. Did I do something wrong?

Unfortunately, because of other underlying medical or heart problems, not all victims of SCA who are in VF will survive even if defibrillation is done promptly & correctly.

What if I don't perform all the steps of CPR and defibrillation perfectly?

SCA is a high stress situation. Even experienced health care providers do not do everything perfectly. In SCA, performing CPR and using an AED can only help the victim.

What if I'm not certain whether or not I need to use an AED?

Remember this rule: only use an AED on someone you would do CPR on - unresponsive and not breathing.
