The Advantages of Zoll CPR-D Padz with Real CPR Help®
The Zoll CPR-D Padz, designed for use with the Zoll AED Plus and Zoll AED Pro, feature a unique single-piece electrode pad, simplifying application and reducing the risk of incorrect placement. While this design is a significant advantage, it is just one of the many benefits offered by the CPR-D Padz. Learn more about why these pads are an excellent addition to your Zoll AED in this article.
Why Zoll CPR-D Padz Are Superior
The Zoll CPR-D Padz offer distinct benefits compared to standard electrodes. The one-piece design makes them easier to apply and ensures better accuracy. These pads are pre-connected, latex-free, and self-adhesive. Additionally, they feature a built-in sensor that provides the rescuer with real-time feedback during CPR, enhancing the quality of resuscitation efforts.
Real CPR Help® by Zoll
Performing effective CPR requires compressions at a rate of 100 to 120 per minute, with a depth of 5 to 6 centimeters. The Zoll CPR-D Padz are equipped with a sensor that, once applied to the chest, monitors the depth and rate of compressions. This data is transmitted to the Zoll AED, which provides immediate feedback through an adaptive metronome. The metronome assists in maintaining the correct pace, while voice prompts encourage the rescuer to achieve the proper compression depth. Audible cues such as "press harder" or "good compressions" guide the rescuer in real time. Additionally, the compression depth is displayed on the AED screen for further accuracy.
Zoll CPR-D Padz and Larger Patients
You may wonder how the one-piece CPR-D Padz work on larger or corpulent patients. Zoll has considered this, and the pad can be separated easily to accommodate patients with a larger chest size, ensuring effective and proper application in all situations.
Shelf Life of Zoll CPR-D Padz
It is recommended to replace your Zoll CPR-D Padz when you change the lithium batteries, as both have a shelf life of five years. The pads come with an expiry date because the conductive gel can dry out over time, which may compromise the AED’s performance during an emergency. It is crucial to always have a fresh, unopened pack of CPR-D Padz with a valid expiration date.
Tip: For easy monitoring, pull the tab showing the expiration date of the electrode pack through the lid of the Zoll AED Plus, so you can check it without opening the AED.
