Propaq MD. The Propaq MD is also intended for use by (or on the order of) physicians at the scene of an emergency or in a hospital emergency room, intensive care unit, cardiac care unit, or other similar areas of a hospital.
AED mode and ALS rescue protocol are not intended for use on neonatal patients. Manual Defibrillation Use of the Propaq MD in the manual mode for external and internal defibrillation is indicated on victims of cardiac arrest where there is apparent lack of circulation as indicated by: Unconsciousness.
Propaq MD Indications for Use ECG Monitoring The Propaq MD is intended for use to monitor and/or record 3-, 5-, or 12-lead ECG waveform and heart rate, and to alarm when heart rate is above or below limits set by the operator. The patient population will range from newborn (neonate) to adult, with and without heart dysfunction.
Respiration Monitoring The Propaq MD is intended for use to continuously monitor respiration rate and to alarm if the rate falls outside of the range set by the operator. Because the measurement method actually measures respiratory effort, apnea episodes with continued respiratory effort (such as obstructive apnea) may not be detected.
Propaq MD Product Functions Defibrillator Output Energy Propaq MD defibrillators can deliver biphasic energy from 1 joule to 200 joules. The energy delivered through the chest wall, however, is determined by the patient’s transthoracic impedance. An adequate amount of electrolyte gel must be applied to the paddles and a force of 10 to 12 kilograms (22 to 26.4 pounds) must be applied to each paddle in order to minimize this...
Use appropriate precautions when disposing of contaminated electrodes. When the patient is less than 8 years old or weighs less than 55 lb. (25 kg), use ZOLL OneStep Pediatric defibrillation electrodes. Do not delay therapy to determine the patient’s exact age or weight.
Display button. Ready For Use (RFU) Indicator The Propaq MD has an RFU indicator on the front panel that indicates if the device is ready for use. The RFU indicator has three states which are described in the following table.
Change the selected energy. • Press the power switch to turn the unit off. • For safety, the Propaq MD automatically disarms if left charged for more than 60 seconds if the shock button ( ) is not pressed. Warnings General Federal (U.S.A.) law restricts this defibrillator to sale by or on the order of a physician.
Warnings The Propaq MD unit might not perform to specifications when stored at the upper or lower extreme limits of storage temperature and then immediately put into use. The Propaq MD unit should not be stored or used outside of the environmental limits provided in Appendix A of this manual.
Monitoring ECG through the paddles may result in inaccurate heart rate display due to artifact. Defibrillation The ZOLL Propaq MD can deliver 200 joules of electrical energy. If this electrical energy is not discharged properly, as described in the this manual, the electrical energy could cause personal injury or death to the operator or bystander.
Consider using asynchronous pacing mode if a reliable ECG trace is unobtainable. Transcutaneous pacing should not be used to treat V FIB (ventricular fibrillation). In cases of V FIB, immediate defibrillation is advised. 9650-0806-01 Rev. D Propaq MD Operator’s Guide 1-17...
This device can only be used for external pacing of patients and cannot be used for internal pacing. Do not connect internal pacing lead wires to the Propaq MD defibrillator. The CPR monitoring function is not intended for use on patients under 8 years of age.
Blood pressure measurement results may be affected by the position of the patient, his or her physiological condition and other factors. Substitution of a component different from that supplied by ZOLL (e.g., cuff, hoses, etc.) may result in measurement error. Use only ZOLL-approved cuffs and hoses. To avoid the risk of intravenous line misconnection and possible introduction of air into a patient’s blood, do not...
Respiration Do not operate the Propaq MD with any other monitor with respiration measurements on the same patient. The two devices could affect the respiration accuracy. The device should not be used as an apnea monitor.
Warnings If the LOW BATTERY icon appears, plug the Propaq MD unit into a power source or install a fully charged battery pack. When the warning low battery shutdown prompt appears, immediately replace the battery pack with a fully charged pack or plug the Propaq MD unit into a power source, as unit shut down due to a low battery condition is imminent.
To ensure patient safety, do not place the monitor in any position that might cause it to fall on the patient. To ensure patient safety, connect the Propaq MD only to equipment with circuits that are electrically isolated. Use only high-quality ECG electrodes. ECG electrodes are for rhythm acquisition only; you cannot use ECG electrodes for defibrillation or pacing.
ECG cables specified or supplied by ZOLL. For continued safety and EMI performance, use only the line cord supplied by ZOLL. Electrical installation of the room or the building in which the monitor is to be used must comply with regulations specified by the country in which the equipment is to be used.
If the Propaq MD unit is powered off for less than 2 minutes, all patient monitoring parameter settings will be retained. If the unit has been powered off for at least two minutes, it will be considered a New Patient and all of the patient-specific parameters (alarm limits, defibrillator energy, etc.) will be reset to their default values.
Notification of Adverse Events As a health care provider, you may have responsibilities under the Safe Medical Devices Act (SMDA), for reporting to ZOLL Medical Corporation, and possibly to the FDA, the occurrence of certain events.

This chapter describes how to use the Propaq MD unit to monitor invasive pressures (IBP). The Propaq MD unit has three invasive pressure channels: P1, P2, and P3. You can use these channels to measure arterial, venous, or intracranial pressures using invasive transducers with 5uV/V/mmHg sensitivity.
• Before you use the Propaq MD unit on a new patient, always turn it off for at least 2 minutes. This clears the previous patient’s trend values, alarm limit settings, and NIBP cuff inflation pressure.
IBP channel. Zeroing the Transducer To ensure that the Propaq MD unit measures pressure accurately, you must zero the transducer before each use. If you change or disconnect a transducer, you must zero the new transducer before use.
Check that the unit is open to atmospheric air and that it is properly connected to the unit, then try zeroing the transducer again. The Propaq MD unit will not zero the transducer if it detects pulsation in the pressure channel, if there is too much noise in the signal, or if transducer’s offset is too great.

Chapter 18 External Pacing When ZOLL hands-free therapy electrodes are used, the patient connection is considered to be defibrillation-protected Type BF. ECG leads are a defibrillation-protected Type CF patient connection. WARNING! Pacing is intended for use on adult patients and on adolescent, child, and infant pediatric patients.
ECG monitoring electrodes and hands-free pacing therapy electrodes to the patient. Pacer Modes The Propaq MD has two pacer mode settings: Demand and Fixed. The default factory mode setting is Demand. In Demand mode, pacing pulses are inhibited by the patient’s QRS complexes that occur during an interval that is dependent on the setting of the rate control.
Pacing in Demand Mode 2 Apply ECG Electrodes/Hands-Free Therapy Electrodes Apply ECG electrodes, attach lead wires, and connect the ECG cable to the Propaq MD side panel (see Chapter 6, "Monitoring ECG" for instructions on attaching ECG electrodes to the patient).
Electrical capture is determined by the presence of a widened QRS complex, the loss of any underlying intrinsic rhythm, and the appearance of an extended, and sometimes enlarged, T-wave. Ventricular response is normally characterized by suppression of the intrinsic QRS complex. 18–4 www.zoll.com 9650-0806-01 Rev. D...
Determination of electrical capture should only be performed by viewing the ECG trace on the Propaq MD display with its ECG connection directly attached to the patient. Use of other ECG monitoring devices might provide misleading information due to the presence of pacer artifacts.

The Real CPR Help function is not intended for use on patients under 8 years of age. When used with CPR-D-padz or OneStep CPR electrodes, the Propaq MD unit can provide rescuers with feedback about the quality of CPR they are delivering to their patients. The way in which feedback is provided varies with respect to the operational mode and user configuration, but is derived from compression rate and depth measurements.

CPR Dashboard CPR Countdown Timer The Propaq MD unit displays a CPR Countdown Timer to indicate the time (in minutes and seconds) left in the current CPR interval. It decrements the time until it reaches zero. The CPR dashboard disappears if the CPR electrodes are disconnected.
HAPTER CPR Compression Bar Graph The Propaq MD unit can display a CPR compression bar graph next to the dashboard that is computed from the CPR sensor signals. This bar graph, representing depth of compression, is presented on a (AHA/ERC 2005: 0 - 2.1, AHA/ERC 2010: 0 - 2.5) inch displacement scale with reference markers at (AHA/ERC 2005: 1.5 and 2.0, AHA/ERC 2010: 2.0 and 2.4) inches.
Diagnostic bandwidth is never applied to the See-Thru CPR waveform. See-Thru CPR enables the rescuer to see a close approximation of the patient’s underlying ECG rhythm while performing CPR. See-Thru CPR is available if the Propaq MD is monitoring CPR.
To use See-Thru CPR The Propaq MD unit must be monitoring CPR. • ZOLL OneStep CPR pads, OneStep Complete pads, or CPR-D-padz must be attached to the • unit. When chest compressions begin, the Propaq MD unit automatically starts filtering the CPR 1artifact after detecting the first 3 to 6 compressions.
