Physio Control Lifepak QUIK-COMBO Adult Electrode Pads

You can use the Lifepak QUIK-COMBO Electrode Pads with the Lifepak 1000 and Lifepak 15 Defibrillators. They are not designed to be used in conjunction with any other device. Owners of a Lifepak 1000 or a Lifepak 15 Defibrillator should always consider having a spare pair of pads on hand. When reacting to someone in sudden cardiac arrest, quick action is critical, and having replacement pads on hand might mean the difference between life and death.

When used with the Lifepak 1000 defibrillator, the device will undergo weekly and monthly self-tests to ensure everything is in working order. If the pads are faulty, expired, or have been used, the defibrillator will signal to the owner that a replacement is needed. Defibrillator owners are encouraged to regularly check that their devices, including batteries and pads, are in good working order. 

Any responder can safely attach the Lifepak QUIK-COMBO Adult Pads to someone in sudden cardiac arrest by following the defibrillator's simple, step-by-step audio prompts. Once you have turned the device on, you will be instructed to follow the guidance given by the device. The sticky adhesive on the pads ensures they will not move once placed on the casualty's chest. 

No, the Lifepak QUIK-COMBO Adult Pads are not suitable for children. These pads are to be used to deliver treatment to adults only. Using the Lifepak QUIK-COMBO Adult Pads on children could have fatal consequences. It is critical to use the proper paediatric pads when treating children.

The difference between the treatment administered to children and adults is that adults require a higher shock frequency. Adult electrode pads should only be used on a person over eight or that weighs more than 25 kg.
