Spanish term or phrase:palas del desfibrilador
En las guías ERC 2005 se recomienda la utilización de los parches de desfibrilación para dar el choque eléctrico en lugar de las palas del desfibrilador, por sus ventajas en cuanto a seguridad, efectividad y rapidez
is it recommending (a) defibrillator patches instead of pads, (b) patches instead of electrodes (c) pads instead of electrodes or (d) something else?
I've tried looking on Google images but its not clear :o/ I guess I'm wonering if pads and patches are the same thing

I apologize, William. I don't know if they are the same or not. The phrase I have always heard is "defibrillator paddles" but that does not answer your question.

You're right Cinnamon, the client told me he used "Self-adhesive pad" / "Hands-free adhesive pad" for "parche" 4 KudoZ points were awarded for this answer
The most common term is "Defibrillator pads" (the use of "patches" is more common in implants than external defibrillation, but "pads" is also more frequent in this case). See "A comparison of transthoracic impedance using standard defibrillation paddles and self-adhesive defibrillation pads" (PubMed) and Google images. You might consider opening a question for "parches", as Michael rightly deserves the points for a perfect answer for "palas".
