A Biphasic system means it has two stages, not sure how this relates to Scoliosis, I woulñd go back to the Dr for more information as to what he is referring "biphasic"

biphasic have lower waveform compared to monophasic
Automated External Defibrillators should be programmed to meet the most current algorithms published by the American Heart Association, and deliver biphasic, transthoracic shocks. They should be small, lightweight, have an extended battery life, and be very simple to use. Most AED's use voice prompts and a series of very simple, large buttons. The best AED's have simulator units that can be used to train personnel in the correct use of the real product.
Child AED pads may not deliver enough energy, so they are not appropriate to use for an adult.
No they are not; they will not deliver enough energy.
Yes, use AED pads on adults with no breathing and no pulse. The pads will need to be matched to the AED as most pads have different attachments to the AED.

No you can not use one adult and one child aed pad.
The ones in existence deliver too much energy. At some point in time there will be 1 AED for A/C/I; but the need for infant AED is so few, in my opinion, that the market would not bear the cost of production.
The AED delivers a shock energy, with units of joules (see the related link). There is not a direct conversion from joules to volts. I have read that the AED has the capability of about 1000 volts. For a comparison of some AEDs and their energy output, see the other related link. An AED with child pads delivers less energy per shock; as low as 50 joules whereas some for an adult will deliver 360 joules or 400 joules.
No; you can't use adult AED pads on a child under 8 years old or 55 pounds. You must use pediatric AED pads because adult pads will supply too much energy when shocking.
