Intended Use Important Information The CPRmeter 2 with Q-CPR® technology is a small, lightweight device powered by a replaceable battery. The device is intended for use by responders who have been trained in CPR and use of the CPRmeter 2. When attached to the bare chest of a suspected victim of SCA, the CPRmeter 2 provides real-time feedback on CPR compressions in accordance with current CPR guidelines. It displays CPR feedback indicators for depth, release, and rate of chest compressions.

Before Use - Insert Batteries Before Use - Apply Patient Adhesive 2 1 1 Cautions Ensure Patient Adhesives are within their expiration date. • • 3 4 2 3 x2 10 Adhesives should be removed from the device and disposed of after 2 years.
CPRmeter 2 Placement Getting Started • • • Note Remove the device from its protective cover. Ensure the patient is on a firm surface. Remove clothing from the patient’s chest. Ensure to use the heel of your hand and apply pressure to the light grey area. Turn On Status Light turns green for a few seconds, when CPRmeter 2 is turned on. Place CPRmeter 2 Begin CPR. Provide chest compressions according to your CPR protocol. If needed, wipe fluids off the chest.
CPRmeter 2 Placement • Cautions If the CPRmeter 2 moves during use, re-position it to the center of the chest, as shown. • If difficulty is encountered in applying the device, do not delay initiation of CPR. Remove the device and begin compressions. • If the device's status light is orange and the CPRmeter display is dark, stop using the CPRmeter and continue CPR. Contact Laerdal for technical support after the event.
Compression Feedback Depth Compression Feedback On Soft Surface If the CPRmeter 2 detects a compression that exceeds 70 mm (2.75"), it will show the depth indicator below the target area. If a specific CPR event requires CPR to be performed on a patient lying on a mattress, slide a backboard under the patient and compensate for the mattress softness by ensuring that for each chest compression the area below the compression depth target lights up.
Compression Feedback Compression Feedback Rate Adequate rate 25 During a cycle of 30 compressions, the counter changes to solid white between 25 and 30 compressions. Beyond 30 compressions, the counter digits flash solid white for every tenth compression. Too slow Without a compression the counter is reset after 3 seconds. Inactivity 0:23 Too fast • After 3 seconds the CPRmeter 2 displays an inactivity timer which counts the seconds since the last compression.
Debriefing Debriefing Q-CPR® Quick Review The CPRmeter 2 can display CPR performance statistics for the last CPR event. When the device is turned on, press the On/Off button once to activate Q-CPR Quick Review. The statistics are shown over two displays. Press the On/Off button once to cycle to the next display. Percentage of compressions with adequate release 98% Percentage of compressions with adequate rate 70% • Notes The CPR event statistics are stored when the CPRmeter 2 is turned off.
Battery Indicator Maintenance Battery Monitoring The CPRmeter 2 continuously monitors the power of its battery. On a routine basis, particularly after periods of non-use, check the CPRmeter 2 battery status by switching on and checking if the low battery icon is displayed. If the remaining power is estimated to be less than that required for a 30 minute CPR event, the visual indicators signal that the battery should be replaced before the next use.
Maintenance Maintenance Cleaning Storing the CPRmeter 2 between Use If the CPRmeter 2 has been used in a training situation, it may be wiped using an alcohol wipe (70% ethanol solution). If the device has been used in a clinical situation, clean it as follows: Store the CPRmeter 2 in its protective cover to shield the display screen from scratches and to protect the patient adhesive from damage. Ensure that the On/Off button can not be inadvertently activated during storage. 1.
