1. Introduction 1.1 Device Description NFK200 is an easy-to-use Semi-Automated External Defibrillator (AED) that is small, light, and portable, and uses a battery. The AED automatically reads the patient's electrocardiogram (ECG) and determines if a cardiac arrest that requires defibrillation has occurred, so that both medical professionals and the general public can easily operate it. Cardiac arrest can occur anytime to anyone at any place and may threaten the patient's life if the appropriate CPR and/or electric shock with a defibrillator are not applied within a few minutes.
The NFK200 is a semi-automated external defibrillator (AED). If connected to a patient, the NFK200 automatically acquires and analyzes the electrocardiogram (ECG) of the patient for the presence of Ventricular Fibrillation or Ventricular Tachycardia (also known as shockable rhythms). If a shockable rhythm is detected, the device automatically charges itself. Defibrillating shock is delivered when you press the SHOCK button.
The NFK200 is easy to use. It guides you throughout a rescue operation using voice prompts and indicators (LED and graphical indicators).
The NFK200 is small, light, highly portable, and battery powered. It is highly suitable for use in public, out-of-hospital settings.

4.3 Defibrillation Procedures for Adult victim Step 1: Place pads on the patient. ① Peel pad 1 off the liner, and stick the pad to the patient’s upper chest as shown below.
② Peel pad 2 off the liner, and stick the pad to the patient’s side torso as shown below.
③If the device detects the connection with the patient after placing the pads, the Do-Not-TouchPatient Indicator lights. Please follow the voice instruction of the device.
If the device does not detect the patient, the device repeats the voice instructions for attaching the pads to the patient until the device detects the connection with the patient after placing the pads.
In emergency of pediatric patient (1 to 8 years old, 10kg to 25kg), follow the Defibrillation Procedures for pediatric patients in this Instructions for Use. Defibrillation can be done even if the pads are reversed. If the locations of pads are switched, follow the next voice instruction without changing the directions of pads. It is more important
19
to begin defibrillation as soon as possible. In the event the pad is not adhering well, check if the adhesive side of the pads is dry. Each pad has an adhesive gel. If the gel does not adhere well, replace it with a new pads.
Ensure the patient is not on a wet surface when performing defibrillation. If the patient's skin is wet, dry the skin prior to using the device. Do not place pads directly on an implanted pacemaker or cardioverter-defibrillator. Place pads away from implanted devices. Disconnect from the patient any medical electrical equipment which has no defibrillationproof applied parts when using the NFK200
Step 2: Press the Shock Button if instructed. The device acquires and analyzes the patient's ECG immediately after being connected. The device will instruct you not to touch the patient by flashing the Do-Not-Touch-Patient Indicator and by issuing the voice prompt: “Do not touch the patient, analyzing heart rhythm”. After analyzing the ECG, the device will determine whether or not the patient needs defibrillation.
Do not move or touch the patient during ECG analysis. Contact with the patient while analyzing the patient’s ECG may result in errors in the ECG analysis.
If the patient needs defibrillation, the device will do the following: The device announces that a defibrillation shock is needed, and instructs you to keep away from the patient.
While the device is charging after a shockable rhythm is detected, the ECG of the patient is continuously acquired and analyzed. The device disarms itself if the ECG rhythm changes to a non-shockable rhythm before shock delivery.
20
When it is charged, the device activates the following indicators in sequence: The device informs you that an electric shock is needed and instructs you to stay away from the patient. Continuously beep while the Shock Button flashes in orange. The device instructs you to press the flashing orange Shock button. You should press the Shock Button within 15 seconds.
When the Shock Button is pressed, the device delivers a defibrillating shock to the patient. If defibrillation is properly done, the device reports that an electric shock has been delivered. After shock delivery, the device indicates that you may touch the patient, and the CPR Mode Indicator is lit. Then, the voice instruction for CPR starts.
If the flashing Shock Button is not pressed within 15 seconds, the device operates following: • Voice instructions: “Shock button is not pressed.” • The light of shock button off • Internal discharge
Then, the device instructs performing CPR.
Do not touch (you or anybody else) the patient during shock delivery. Before defibrillation, make sure that there is no contact between 1 and 2 below which may provide unwanted pathways for the defibrillating current. • the patient’s body (such as exposed skin or head or limbs), conductive fluids (such as gel), blood, or saline • metal objects (such as bed frame or stretcher)
While analyzing ECG, keep the patient still and minimize movements around the patient. Do not touch the patient and pads while the Do-Not-Touch-Patient Indicator is on. Electrical noise (interference) may delay the ECG analysis. As a safety measure, the device will not deliver a shock until the flashing orange SHOCK button is pressed. If the SHOCK button is not pressed within 15 seconds of the voice instruction to press the SHOCK button, the device will disarm itself (dumps the shock energy in its internal
