Defibrillating device equipped with a plurality of connector/electrode assemblies of different types
First Claim
1. Defibrillating system comprising a defibrillating device and a plurality of connector/electrodes assemblies of different types, each of which comprising at least one connecting cable adapted to be removably and interchangeably connected to a casing of said defibrillating device at a unique connection site equipped with a fixed mating connector, wherein all control (13, 13'"'"', 18, 21) and functioning adjustment devices (17) of said defibrillating device (1) are mounted on the connector (8)/electrodes (9, 9'"'"') assemblies, the casing (2) of said defibrillating device (1) comprising only display devices, and no control or functioning adjustment devices,wherein a first type of said plurality of connector/electrode assemblies comprises a first control assembly with a display indicating discharge authorization, a manually operated variable energy selector, and two control buttons for controlling the defibrillating discharge at the manually selected energy level,wherein a second type of said plurality of connector/electrode assemblies comprises a second control assembly without a manually operated variable energy selector and including a display indicating discharge authorization, a switch for requesting automatic determination by said defibrillating device of an energy level, and two control buttons for controlling the defibrillating discharge at the automatically selected energy level, andwherein each of said first and second connector/electrode assemblies further comprise electrodes selected from the group consisting of paddle electrodes, internal electrodes and adhesive electrodes.
