Philips HeartStart Onsite

Every single American knows someone or has had someone in his or her workplace or family suffer from a heart attack. That's why more and more families and businesses are taking steps to increase the chances of savings someone's life if a heart attack should happen at home or work. Today's technology allows most homes and business affordable life saving technology that can make the difference in the time of an emergency. We have researched the various portable heart defibrillators on the market and our top choice is the Philip's HeartStart defibrillator. At $1,200, this unit is highly reliable and affordable and should be included in your home or office emergency and disaster planning kits.

Weighing just 3.3 lbs., this small and lightweight defibrillator can be easily carried to the patient's side. Using clear, natural voice instructions, the OnSite Defibrillator guides you, the first caregiver on the scene, through each step of defibrillation and CPR. Integrated SMART Pads placed on the patient's bare skin transmit information to the defibrillator, which senses and adapts to your actions every step of the way.
HeartStart AED includes proven Philips technologies for heart rhythm assessment (SMART Analysis) and defibrillation energy delivery (SMART Biphasic). And like all HeartStart defibrillators, it can be used to treat infants, children and adults.

HeartStart AED is powered by a disposable battery, the same technology used in cameras. Just click the battery in place, and the defibrillator is in standing by, ready for use.

Between uses, the defibrillator performs daily, weekly, and monthly self-tests of its electrical components, subsystems, and battery to help ensure continued reliability and readiness. A pads integrity test, which checks daily that the cartridge is properly installed and that the defibrillator pads are in working order, provides an additional level of assurance.

As long as the green Ready light on the defibrillator is blinking, you can be certain the HeartStart AED is ready for use. If any part of the defibrillator needs attention, the Ready light turns off and the defibrillator will chirp to alert you. Pressing the flashing blue Information button provides verbal guidance to help you identify and correct the situation.

As always,

Please plan ahead!
