PHILIPS HEALTHCARE SUPPORT CENTRE EU

A Philips defibrillator acts as your personal coach to guide you through the process of treating a victim of suspected sudden cardiac arrest.
The AED provides real-time guidance through simple, step-by-step voice commands and CPR coaching.
A Philips defibrillator guides the responder with clear and adaptive voice instructions. The intelligent sensors detect at what step the responder is and adapt seamlessly to the responder’s level of expertise, empowering even the most inexperienced responders during a rescue.
Its unparalleled ease-of-use sets the Philips HS1 apart: it is the only FDA Over-The-Counter approved AED in the world.

The European Resuscitation Council recommends never to interrupt CPR for more than 10 seconds (ECR Official Resuscitation Guidelines). With a time-to-shock of only 8 seconds, a Philips defibrillator is among the fastest at delivering shock treatment after CPR periods.

Before you can deliver a shock, a Philips defibrillator automatically checks to make sure a shock is necessary and that the right, personalised therapy is given.
If you insert the infant/child Key in the FRx, or the infant/child SMART Pads Cartridge in the HS1, the defibrillator will automatically adjust to a lower energy level and modify the coaching instructions to help you provide infant/child CPR periods.
