Empower Every Rescuer with the Philips HeartStart FRx Defibrillator
In those critical moments that demand swift action, the Philips HeartStart FRx stands as a testament to empowerment and accessibility in the realm of emergency medical response. Designed with patented technology and proven therapy, this rugged, lightweight defibrillator ensures that basic life support (BLS) responders, regardless of experience, can become life saving rescuers in the face of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). When every minute counts, the FRx is the partner by your side, side by side, step by step.
Immediate Readiness, Unmatched Ease of Use
The HeartStart FRx is built for speed and simplicity, guiding responders through three simple steps:
- Press the green On/Off button, which activates voice instruction and visual icons.
- Place the pads on the patient as directed.
- When advised by the device, press the orange shock button.
Its patented Quick Shock feature typically delivers a shock within 8 seconds after CPR, and studies show that minimizing time to shock after CPR may improve survival.
Guided Response for Effective Intervention
Real time, step by step voice commands are paced to the responder's actions, supported by an audible metronome and CPR guidance to help maintain proper compression timing. These features work together to keep even a first time rescuer calm, confident, and on pace during a high stress event.
Adaptive Support for Every Victim
Pre connected SMART Pads II can be used for both adults and children right out of the box. When treating an infant or child, simply insert the optional infant/child key and the FRx automatically adjusts its instructions and therapy, making it a versatile tool suitable for victims of any age.
Built to Work Where You Need It
Lightweight, rugged, and reliable, the HeartStart FRx can withstand rough handling, extreme temperatures, and dusty or wet surfaces. Designed for use in harsh settings, it can withstand up to 500kg (1,100lbs) of pressure and drops from 1.2m (4ft), ensuring it performs when and where it's needed most.
Simplified Maintenance
Once installed and activated, the FRx is easy to maintain. It performs a series of automatic self tests daily, weekly, and monthly to check pad readiness and verify the functionality and calibration of its circuits and systems. It can last up to four years between battery replacements, offering long term dependability with minimal upkeep.
