INTENDED USE
The Laerdal AED Trainer 2 is designed to prepare emergency responders to use the Heartstart FR2 AED. This
Trainer provides a variety of simulations, or training scripts, to help responders become familiar with the AED
and allow them to demonstrate the basic skills necessary to use the AED in an emergency.
NOTE: Before using the FR2 AED, the responder should have completed an appropriate responder training
program, which may include the use of the Laerdal AED Trainer 2. Having completed such a course, the
responder should demonstrate a proficiency in assessing the patient for lack of responsiveness, absence of
breathing, and lack of circulation; cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR); and knowledge of applicable medical
protocols and procedures.
FEATURES
-
The Laerdal AED Trainer 2 provides simulated shock delivery. It has no high-voltage capabilities, ensuring
safety during training. Important: Remember handling safety when using working defibrillators that give a
high-voltage shock.
-
The Laerdal AED Trainer 2 is designed for use with the AED Little Anne and AED Resusci Anne manikins
with Laerdal Link Technology by giving responses to pad placement on the manikins. It can also be used
with any other manikin. Important: Realistic responses to pad placement feature is only available when
used together with the AED Little Anne or AED Resusci Anne manikins with Laerdal Link Technology.
-
The Laerdal AED Trainer 2 can be used with an optional infrared remote control. The remote control gives
the instructor the ability to control the training scenarios.
-
The Laerdal AED Trainer 2 is pre-configured with 10 training scenarios that simulate realistic sudden car-
diac arrest episodes. See page 6 for scenario descriptions. These scenarios are compatible with training
programs developed by nationally and internationally recognized responder programs. Check with your
local medical director and Emergency Medical System for additional training requirements, protocols, and
materials. In addition, three custom scenarios can be created using the optional Scenario Builder PC soft-
ware. (See accessories on page 5).
-
The Laerdal AED Trainer 2 can be connected to the serial port of a PC (generally labeled "COM1"). The
optional PC software lets you configure custom training scenarios, set-up various protocol parameters and
change language output. Connection to a PC serial port requires a standard 1:1 9-pin D-sub serial cable.
