Philips HeartStart FRx AED

A sudden cardiac arrest can happen everywhere – hospitals, shopping malls… The Philips HeartStart FRx defibrillator can help out in these situations. It has a voice command, simple operation and an intelligent technology which all make the device easy to use for laypeople. The defibrillator will guide them with its calm, clear voice instructions and its acoustic metronome through cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

There is also a separately available child key that, when inserted into the FRx, lets the device know you are treating a child or an infant. The defibrillator then reduces its energy. The Philips SMART Biphasic therapy measures each patient’s resistance and adjusts accordingly the therapy’s timing, so the AED can be used on young patients without the special pediatric electrode pads. The first aid defibrillator autonomously performs over 80 different tests daily, weekly and monthly and is therefore maintenance-free.

Please note: The included electrodes/pads are usable until March 5th, 2025.
