Event Description
|
It was reported to philips the device did not shock during ventricular defibrillation.The patient experienced respiratory cardiac arrest and the clinician massaged and ventilated the patient, and defibrillator pads were attached.The clinician could not see the tracing on the screen so the connection was checked.The clinician then switched to a different defibrillator using an adhesive pad but they were now seeing a non shockable rhythm of asystole.The patient died of cardiac arrest by asystole, therefore no shock was necessary.
