Using the TrueCPR Device
Using the TrueCPR Device During Defibrillation
It is acceptable to keep the TrueCPR device on the patient during defibrillation.
Observe the following precautions:
Using the TrueCPR Device on Patients with Sternal Incisions
Establish and follow local protocols for use of the TrueCPR device on patients
with sternal incisions or injuries.
Using the TrueCPR Device on Patients with Implantable Devices
The magnetic fields used by the TrueCPR device have passed all interaction
testing and known safety standards for implanted pacemaker and ICD systems.
Using the TrueCPR Device for Training
The TrueCPR device may be used on a manikin for training purposes. Some
manikins may require updates to reach compression depths of 5 to 6 cm (2 to
2.5 in), consistent with AHA and ERC guidelines. You can use a manikin that
does not allow these depths, but the TrueCPR device will not reach the
compression target zone.
Note: The Reposition Back Pad indicator (see page 11) may appear if the
manikin contains large metal plates.
