Continuity Test Procedures

To ensure reliable performance, perform continuity tests of the connector pins before the
internal paddles are sterilized for the first time. After the first sterilization cycle, perform
continuity tests every 3 months or every 25 sterilization cycles, whichever occurs first.
The internal paddles contain no serviceable parts. If testing reveals a potential problem, remove
the internal paddles from service and contact your local Stryker representative for assistance.
IMPORTANT!
•
Use Universal Precautions when handling internal paddles that have not been sterilized.
•
The internal paddles must be cleaned and sterilized after testing. See Cleaning Instructions
(US/FDA) (on page 21), Cleaning Instructions (Alternate/CE) (on page 26), Sterilization
Instructions (US/FDA) (on page 24), and Sterilization Instructions (Alternate/CE) (on page 28)
for more information.
The internal paddles are available with either of two connector types. Use the following pin
diagrams to determine which connector type you have.
To perform the continuity test:
1. Disconnect the internal paddles from the defibrillator.
2. Use a continuity tester, such as an ohm meter or a digital multimeter, to verify the resistance
between the pins and electrodes as specified in the pin diagrams.
