Phillips HeartStart FR3

Making lifesaving faster, easier, better
The new HeartStart FR3 is Philips best professional-grade AED yet and is now making lifesaving faster, easier, better for professional  responders.
As the smallest and lightest professional- grade AED available among leading global manufacturers*, the HeartStart FR3 continues Philips legacy of providing AEDs that are designed to be rugged, reliable, and to support you every step of the way.
Philips, the worldwide leader in automated external defibrillators  (AEDs), helped chart the course for the widespread  use of AEDs to treat sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) among professional  responders starting with the innovative ForeRunner  and HeartStart FR2 AEDs.
With HeartStart FR3, Philips is raising the bar for AEDs.

Key advantages

Faster – helping you start delivery of the right therapy faster by significantly  reducing deployment time:
Automatically  powers on** by opening the Philips HeartStart FR3 carry case so you can focus on pad placement from the start.
Pre-connected peel and place SMART Pads III with no foil pouch to reduce deployment time.
Quick Shock reduces CPR interruptions  and speeds shock delivery.
Use the same SMART Pads III for adults and children for faster pediatric cardiac arrest response.
Infant/Child  Key automatically  decrease the defibrillation  therapy and implement the configured infant/child  CPR protocols.

Easier – helping make your job easier with the smallest and lightest professional-grade AED among leading global manufacturers. It is designed to be rugged, reliable and ready to use:
Smallest and lightest (3.5lbs, 1.6kg) professional-grade AED among leading global manufacturers makes the FR3 easier to carry along with other equipment.
Bright, high-resolution color LCD makes the FR3 easier to use in a noisy environment. Performs daily, weekly, and monthly automated self-tests, including pads integrity, with visual and attention-getting audible alerts.
Protection against dust and jetting water (IP55) gives you confidence the FR3 will withstand your physically demanding  work environment.
Ready-for-use visual indicator flashes a green ready light making it easier to confirm the FR3 is ready.
Bilingual configuration  makes it easier to use the FR3 in bilingual work environments. Long-life battery typically delivers 300 shocks or, if configured,  12 hours of monitoring to give you confidence that the FR3 will be ready when needed.
CPR Metronome  keeps the beat for consistent chest compressions
SMART Pads III are compatible  for use with the HeartStart FR2-Series  making it easier to standardize  on one pad set for your program.
Extensively  upgradable  to take advantage of Philips advancements now and in the future.

Better – helping support a culture of continuous  improvement  with data management  solutions
Review, annotate, print, and store AED events with HeartStart Event Review for timely retrospective  responder feedback for more effective training.
Provide more in-depth assessment  of responder intervention  and patient response to evaluate individual and system-wide  response performance with HeartStart Event Review Pro. Automatically  route events from your responder’s computers based on your desired workflow, whether it is to your medical director or data administrator, with HeartStart Data Messenger.
Append a defibrillator  event to any electronic patient care reporting (ePCR) enabled with the Philips Data Software Development  Kit.
