AEDs for home & public
Ease of use sets Philips AEDs apart
Combining CPR with the use of automated external defibrillators
(AEDs) could save the lives of up to 300,000 sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) victims per year.
But which AED is the right choice? And why?
At HeartStream, we believe that AEDs should be easy to use. This way, even inexperienced responders, confronted with the stress and chaos of a cardiac emergency, have the power to deliver a life-saving shock to an SCA victim.
Philips HeartStart AEDs will help give you the confidence to act quickly and lead the way to help save a life.
This is achieved by:
• Personalized coaching to guide you quickly and easily through a cardiac emergency
with a simple, step-by-step process
• A calm, clear voice that explains exactly what to do, actively adapting instructions to
keep you on track
• Intelligent sensors that automatically deliver the right therapy at the right time,
based on a person’s body type
So why is Philips the #1 choice?
Simple. Only Philips AEDs offer Life Guidance. A calm, clear voice provides
easy-to-follow instructions, including detailed CPR coaching. This unique feature
provides prompts that aren’t just repeated, but rephrased in simple language to
help facilitate understanding.
Personalized. Intelligent sensors assess and automatically deliver the right
therapy, at the right time - personalized to every man, woman, or child.
Responsive. Our proprietary SMART Pads sense where you are in the rescue and
actively adapt the defibrillator’s instructions to your actions. Only Philips AEDs
give you this personalized guidance.
Fast. With our proprietary QuickShock technology, HeartStart AEDs are among
the fastest in delivering shock treatment after CPR – typically in 8 seconds.
According to the American Heart Association, reducing the time between
compression and shock delivery by even a few seconds can increase the
probability of success.
Automated. SMART analysis automatically assesses heart rhythm to determine
whether a shock is needed. If the AED does not advise a shock, no shock can
be delivered, even if the shock button is pressed.
Ready to go. Philips AEDs are very easy to set up and use. Designed for the ordinary
person in the extraordinary moment, they’re ready to rescue right out of the box.
Proven where it matters. Data from four independent published studies showed Philips AEDs to be one of the easiest to use AEDs on the market. They’ve also been shown to be effective in 43 peer-reviewed publications.
