Early Defibrillation
The AHA 2005 Guidelines challenge hospitals to deploy AEDs and to train and empower first responders to deliver defibrillation within 3 minutes of collapse.
Challenges
- Are your BLS responders trained to deliver early defibrillation?
- Can your defibrillators function in both BLS "AED" and ALS "Manual" modes?
- Do your various defibrillators share a common set of controls?
Meeting the Challenges
The LIFEPAK® 20 defibrillator/monitor is uniquely designed to facilitate early defibrillation. With the door closed BLS responders see and AED. When the code team arrives they open the door to access the same manual monitoring and therapy controls as our fully featured LIFEPAK® 12 defibrillator/monitor.
