Infant/Child SMART Pads Cartridge Item # M5072A Children under 8 years of age or weighing less than 25 kg, including infants, should be treated using HeartStart Infant/Child SMART Pads, if available.
These pads instruct the defibrillator to provide voice instructions appropriate for a paediatric patient, and to reduce the energy of its shock from 150 to 50 Joules (J), a more appropriate dosage.
The Infant/Child Pads cartridge is marked with an indication of patient weight and with a teddy bear icon for easy identification.
