(Attachment E) Inspection of Emergency Drug Kits and Crash Carts At the change of each shift staff should inspect the Crash Cart and Emergency Drug Kit located in their areas to assure that locks are intact. Check previous lock numbers and ensure that no drugs or supplies are out of date. If the lock on the crash cart is broken, complete a total inventory of the cart, replace used/expired items and replace lock. Check the emergency drug kit. If the emergency drug kit lock is broken or the drug kit has been removed or compromised, call the pharmacist on duty to report that the drug kit has been opened or removed.

Page 3 of 3 No: 5.20B If the locks are not intact or supplies are in need of replacing follow above procedures for corrective action. Ensure that the AED and electrode pads are on the cart and that an extra charged battery is available for use (if applicable) Check and record the oxygen psi (pounds per square inch) every night on 11-7 shift. The tank should be changed if it reads 500 psi or less. Note: If a tank needs to be replaced, one of the extra tanks in the building should be used (Each building will have access to replacement tanks). Replacement tanks are obtained from Respiratory Services, which have tanks delivered directly to them from contracted company. Additional tanks may also be obtained from the campus nurse administrator after hours, weekends, and holidays. Check the suction machine every night. If the suction machine is battery operated unplug and run for 15 minutes every Wednesday night. For all types of suction check for vacuum. Vacuum check: Make sure that the regulator is pushed in to the high vacuum position. If the units stops or slows during the testing time, notify the nurse manager/designee who will report the malfunction to the biomedical engineer. Documentation will be completed on the Emergency Drug Kit and Crash Cart Inspection Check form (Attachment F) Quality control of AEDs is monitored monthly through Clinical Consultative Services.

The tank should be changed if it reads 500 psi or less. 2) Ensure that the lock is intact and verify the crash cart lock number. 3) Verify the expiration dates of the AED electrode pads. 4) For Lifepak 500, verify the expiration dates of BOTH AED batteries on the form. For Zoll, check to ensure green check ( ) light is on. If red (X) is present, unplug electrodes and check for green check ( ) to appear.
