<strong>The</strong> <strong>Defibrillation</strong> <strong>Process</strong><br />

Effective adherence of electrode pads<br />

• Only place electrode pads on clean, dry skin<br />

• Do not use alcohol wipes<br />

• If chest is hairy, remove hair with razor or shears<br />

• Apply electrode pads with a<br />

smooth rolling action to<br />

prevent air bubbles<br />

• Once applied, electrode<br />

pads should not be<br />

repositioned or removed<br />

• Do not use electrodes after<br />

their expiry date<br />
