The LIFEPAK 500 AED requires operator interaction to defibrillate the patient.

    Reason

    Automated External Defibrillators may not detect a patient connection due to mechanical wear-through of the contact plating on the therapy connector. The wear-through could result in the device not recognizing a patient is connected which could result in a delay in treatment
