PARAMEDIC CU-ER1
PARAMEDIC CU-ER1
Paramedic CU-ER1 - this is an easy to use defibrillator with a graphic liquid crystal display. It runs in AED mode and acquires ECG signals and delivers the shock through disposable electrode pads. It is intended for use by emergency first responders such as firemen and paramedics.
Simple and Easy to use
The Paramedic CU-ER1 is a semi-automated external defibrillator (AED). If connected to a patient, it automatically acquires and analyzes the electrocardiogram (ECG) of the patient for the presence of Ventricular Fibrillation or Ventricular Tachycardia (also known as shockable rhythms).
If a shockable rhythm is detected, the Paramedic CU-ER1 automatically charges itself and then prompts you to press the SHOCK button. When you press the SHOCK button after being prompted to press it, the Paramedic CU-ER1 delivers a defibrillating shock. After delivering a shock, the Paramedic CU-ER1 allows you to administer CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) according to the AHA 2005 Guidelines on CPR.
The Paramedic CU-ER1 is easy to use. It guides you throughout a rescue operation using voice and text prompts. The SHOCK button that commences a shock delivery is clearly marked and is fitted with a backlight that flashes when the button has to be pressed.
ECG monitoring (3 Lead ECG cable)
The Paramedic CU-ER1 may also be used for ECG monitoring only. To enter this mode, the ECG Monitoring Cable and Connector Assembly must be connected to it. In this mode, the Paramedic CU-ER1 only monitors the ECG and does not deliver a shock.
Intelligent Data Management Systems
The Paramedic CU-ER1 enables you to review the critical events and data acquired during a rescue or an ECG monitoring operation. The ECG of the patient and critical events (charging, shock delivery, etc.) are automatically recorded in the internal memory of the device. Voice recording may also be done if the optional removable flash memory card is used.
The ECG data acquired by the Paramedic CU-ER1 may be reviewed and printed directly using the device or may be transferred to a personal computer for archiving, review, and printing.
Automatic and operator initiated Self-Test
The Paramedic CU-ER1 is easy to troubleshoot and maintain. It is programmed to conduct automatic Power On, Run Time, Daily, Weekly, and Monthly self tests. During these tests, the critical subsystems of the device are tested for functionality. If a fault is detected, the device informs you of the fault through audible and visible indicators.
Versatile power supply
The Paramedic CU-ER1 is powered by a versatile power supply system. It is equipped with an internal rechargeable 12V DC Nickel Metal Hydride battery pack. This internal battery pack may be recharged using the AC/DC adapter or the car cigar lighter jack power cord. The internal battery pack has a capacity of 200 shocks when new and fully charged (150J into 50Ω).
The Paramedic CU-ER1 may also be powered using the external, disposable LiMnO2 battery pack available from CU Medical Systems, Inc. The battery pack has a capacity of 200 shocks (150J into 50Ω) when used at an ambient temperature of 25 °C.

Disarm
Once charged, the Paramedic CU-ER1 disarms if:
Patient’s heart rhythm changes to non-shockable rhythm, or
The SHOCK button is not pressed within 15 seconds after the Paramedic CU-ER1 is armed, or
The ON/OFF button is pressed to turn OFF the Paramedic CU-ER1, or
The defibrillator pads are removed from the patient or the pads connector is disconnected from the Paramedic CU-ER1
Shock Delivery
Shock is delivered if the SHOCK button is pressed while the Paramedic CU-ER1 is armed.
Shock Delivery Vector
Via adult defibrillator pads in the anterior-anterior (Lead II) position or via Reduced-energy pediatric pads in the anterior-posterior position.
