Introduction
The Physio-Control TrueCPR coaching device provides rescuers with real-time
feedback on chest compressions during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in
accordance with current CPR guidelines.
IMPORTANT! Read these instructions carefully before use, and keep for future
reference.
These operating instructions provide the procedural steps for proper use of the
TrueCPR device, and can be used for training purposes. Operators should read
these instructions and be thoroughly familiar with the device before use.
For information about electromagnetic compatibility, see “Electromagnetic
Compatibility Guidance” on page 19.
Intended Use
The TrueCPR device is intended to provide feedback to assist rescuers to
perform CPR. Rescuers must be trained in CPR and use of the device.
The TrueCPR device is intended for use on patients eight years of age and older.
Indications
The TrueCPR device is indicated for use on patients in cardiac arrest
(unconscious, pulseless, not breathing normally).
Operating Principle
The TrueCPR device consists of a chest pad, which is placed on the sternum,
and a back pad, which is placed beneath the patient. The device determines the
depth of chest compressions during CPR by measuring the distance between the
chest pad and back pad. The device measures distance by sending and
receiving electromagnetic signals between the chest pad and back pad.
Safety Information
The following terms are used in these operating instructions:
Warning: Hazards or unsafe practices that may result in serious personal
injury or death.
Caution: Hazards or unsafe practices that may result in minor personal injury,
product damage, or property damage.

2 TrueCPR Device Instructions for Use
Safety Information
IMPORTANT! Check the battery readiness indicator regularly. If indicator is not
flashing, replace batteries immediately.
WARNINGS
POSSIBLE PATIENT INJURY:
• The TrueCPR device is not intended for use on children or infants. Only
use the device on patients who are 8 years of age or older.
POSSIBLE INEFFECTIVE CPR:
• After use, inspect device and cable for wear or damage. Remove from
service if damaged.
• Do not use the TrueCPR device over very large metal surfaces. Perform
CPR unaided instead.*
• The TrueCPR device may provide incorrect feedback if not positioned
properly.
• Check back pad and chest pad position after patient movement and
during transport.
• If patient is on a mattress, place a backboard beneath the patient
according to standard protocols. Then insert the device back pad
between the patient and backboard.
• If the device cannot be positioned correctly on the patient or fails to
operate, remove the device and perform CPR unaided.
POSSIBLE DEVICE FAILURE: Do not modify the TrueCPR device.
POSSIBLE ELECTRICAL INTERFERENCE WITH DEVICE
PERFORMANCE: Equipment operating in close proximity may emit strong
electromagnetic or radio frequency interference (RFI), which could affect the
performance of this device. Avoid operating the device near cauterizers,
diathermy equipment, or other portable and mobile RF communications
equipment. See “Separation Distances” on page 22 for recommended
distances of equipment. Contact Physio-Control Technical Support if
assistance is required.
POSSIBLE EXPLOSION HAZARD: Do not use this device in the presence of
flammable gases or anesthetics.
* The TrueCPR device has been designed for use on hospital beds,
stretchers, gurneys, and in ambulances. The device is compatible with
common patient-worn or implanted metal, such as jewelry, ICDs, or
pacemakers.

4 Press the (POWER) button to turn the device on. The calibration screen
appears.
IMPORTANT! Do not press on the chest pad until calibration is complete
and feedback screen appears (approximately 3 seconds).
5 Position the back pad beneath the patient as shown in Figure 1. This helps
the back pad stay in position. The back pad may be placed on either side of
the patient.
6 Dry chest if necessary to prevent the chest pad from slipping.
7 Place the chest pad so that the palm pad is in the middle of the chest, on the
lower half of the sternum.
Figure 1 Recommended Device Position
Notes:
• If the Reposition Back Pad alert indicator appears, adjust the back pad
position to be closer to the chest pad if possible. See “Alert Indicators” on
page 10 for more information. If the Reposition Back Pad alert persists,
perform CPR unaided.
• If the device cannot be placed in the recommended position, the
alternative position shown in Figure 2 may be used. When the back pad is
placed in the side position, the chest pad must be rotated 180°. Keep the
palm pad in the middle of the chest on the lower half of the sternum. If the
device cannot be positioned properly, perform CPR unaided.

6 TrueCPR Device Instructions for Use
Using the TrueCPR Device
8 Place the heel of your hand on the palm pad and begin compressions in time
with the metronome. Be sure to maintain correct CPR hand position.
9 Follow the device metronome to maintain your rhythm.
Note: To silence the metronome, press the (MUTE) button.
10 Observe the screen for depth feedback and any alert indications. Adjust your
technique based on the feedback. See the screen illustrations beginning on
page 8 for descriptions of the feedback.
11 Provide rescue breaths when prompted by the screen and ventilation tones.
12 Continue CPR as long as indicated by your local protocols. When
compressions stop, the inactivity timer appears in place of the compression
rate meter. If compressions resume within 10 minutes, compression
feedback resumes. The device turns off automatically after 10 minutes with
no activity.
13 To turn the device off, press and hold the (POWER) button for 2 seconds.
WARNING
POSSIBLE INEFFECTIVE CPR: If the screen on the TrueCPR device is
unreadable, unresponsive, or otherwise visibly damaged, do not use the
device. Perform CPR unaided instead.
