From the world leader in medical technology — for the minimally trained user
Medtronic created the LIFEPAK CR Plus Automated External Defibrillator (AED) for the first person at the scene of a sudden cardiac arrest to use. Designed for the minimally trained rescuer, the semi-automatic CR Plus requires just three steps to give a potentially life saving defibrillation shock, while the fully automatic CR Plus requires just two steps. The LIFEPAK CR Plus defibrillator uses the latest ADAPTIV biphasic technology, which automatically adjusts energy based on the person's needs. The device provides additional shocks, up to 350 joules if the heart doesn't respond to the first shock. This can enhance the chance of defibrillation success, with the goal of saving more lives. An internal computer analyzes the heart's rhythm, making it possible to individuals without medical training to deliver potentially lifesaving treatment with the press of a button. The lightweight, cost effective power system requires little maintenance, can deliver 20 - 30 full energy shocks, and is easy to recharge. The readiness display indicates the status of the CHARGE-PAK™ battery charger, and uses simple icons to indicate the status of the device. QUIK-PAK pacing/defibrillation/ECG electrodes enable rapid access, incorporating a unique and easy pull handle with written and graphic prompts. The electrodes are compatible with all devices and connectors that can use QUIK-COMBO™ electrodes. The device stores ECG data for wireless transmission through an infrared IrDA port to a personal computer (PC). This method of data storage and transfer is the most innovative idea in current AED technology, and eliminates the need for data cards. User friendly, PC-based software allows for complete and efficient review of both ECG and event data. Information from the CR Plus can be downloaded and stored in either the LIFENET® DT Express information management system or CODE-STAT™ Suite medical informatics system. |
| With the LIFEPAK CR Plus AED, you'll have peace of mind knowing you have Medtronic, the world leader in defibrillation, behind you. The LIFEPAK reputation for quality and reliability has earned the trust of the experts in emergency medical care. More hospitals and nine out of the top ten emergency medical services (EMS) in the U.S. rely on LIFEPAK defibrillators every day to save lives. For decades, our goal has been to get a lifesaving defibrillation shock to people who need it - sooner - because the chances of surviving sudden cardiac arrest are best within the first few minutes of arrest. An AED used quickly and effectively by the first person at the scene can have lifesaving results. Ease of use is vital to delivering the first shock faster. The LIFEPAK CR Plus AED is the easiest to use AED ever developed. Although rescuers should be trained in CPR and AED use, a recent study found that untrained people could deliver a shock faster with the CR Plus than with other AEDs tested. And an independent expert review of the five AEDs on the market rated the CR Plus number one in ease of use and intuitiveness. The only fully automatic AED available, the CR Plus does everything for you. All you have to do is follow the prompts, apply the preconnected electrode pads and stand back. There is no shock button to push, and the CR Plus is designed to deliver a shock only if it determines the heart needs it. For those who want more control, the semi-automatic CR Plus comes with a shock button. Packaged in this easy-to-use device, the LIFEPAK CR Plus AED houses the same advanced therapy that more medical professionals trust and use everyday. ADAPTIV™ biphasic technology adjusts therapy to each person's unique needs and provides repeat escalating shocks (200 - 360 joules) if the heart doesn't respond to previous shocks. Infant/Child Reduced Energy Defibrillation Electrodes now make it possible for even the youngest victims of sudden cardiac arrest to receive potentially lifesaving defibrillation. The CR Plus is built to the tough specifications of emergency medical services teams. It can withstand rugged treatment and can travel without injury. The LIFEPAK CR Plus AED has a battery system that uses an easy-to-use CHARGE-PAK™ battery charger. You can rest assured because a built in system ensures the CR Plus has full power in the event of sudden cardiac arrest. Synchronized replacement dates for the battery charger and electrodes cut required maintenance in half. Built for reliability with careful engineering up front, a regular self test offers additional assurance that your CR Plus is rescue ready. The easily visible readiness display tells you at a glance if your device needs service. |

| The entry-level AED from Medtronic, the world leader in medical technology and defibrillation Easy to use, appropriate for those with minimal training With the advanced technology trusted by more medical professionals Meets the tough specifications required by emergency medical services (EMS) teams Unique built-in system helps assure the EXPRESS has full power and is ready for rescue Synchronized replacement dates for battery charger and electrodes cut maintenance efforts in half |
| Created especially for the first person at the scene of a sudden cardiac arrest, the LIFEPAK EXPRESS defibrillator is the entry-level automated external defibrillator (AED) from Medtronic. The EXPRESS is so easy to use, it is suitable for the minimally trained responder. The defibrillator shows and tells the rescuer exactly what to do, one step at a time, making each step obvious. A centrally located, flashing shock button makes it clear what the user should push if the defibrillator determines a shock is needed. In the chaotic conditions surrounding sudden cardiac arrest, the defibrillator’s ease of use helps promote quick, effective treatment. The EXPRESSis compatible with the advanced LIFEPAK defibrillators used by the majority of emergency medical services (EMS) teams, including the industry-leading LIFEPAK 12 defibrillator/monitor, and is built to the tough environmental specifications EMS teams require. ADAPTIV™ biphasic technology automatically adjusts therapy to each person’s needs and escalates from 200 to 360 joules if the heart doesn’t respond to previous shocks. This can enhance defibrillation success, with the goal of saving more lives. The battery system uses an easy-to-change CHARGE-PAK™ battery charger, and replacement dates for the battery charger and electrodes are synchronized, cutting required maintenance efforts in half. A unique built-in system helps ensure the EXPRESShas full power if and when sudden cardiac arrest strikes. Infant/Child Reduced Energy Defibrillation Electrodes make therapy available to even the youngest victims of sudden cardiac arrest; up to eight years old or 25 kg (55 lbs). Innovative data management tools support compliance with state and local regulations following AED use. Users can wirelessly transmit ECG and event data through an infrared IrDa port to a PC, eliminating the need for data cards. |
