Zoll medical corporation evaluated the device and the device performed to specification.The device was recertified and returned to the customer.Review of the device logs confirms poor coupling between the electrode pads and the patient's skin, shown as an invalid impedance.We could not confirm the cause of the poor coupling without evaluation of the electrode pads.The electrode pads were not returned as part of this investigation.Analysis of reports of this type has not identified an increase in trend.
