The HeartStart OnSite: Using a defibrillator has never been this easy
In the critical minutes before the emergency medical service arrives, who will provide the defibrillation needed to keep the victim alive after a sudden cardiac arrest? The HeartStart OnSite defibrillator is easy enough for anyone to use, yet powerful enough to save someone’s life. Available without a prescription, the HeartStart OnSite was designed to be used by laypeople. At only 3.3 pounds, it’s one of the lightest, most easily transportable defibrillators around.
The on-demand CPR coaching provides rescuers with clear, step-by-step voice instructions to help them perform CPR and defibrillation. The voice prompts guide the rescuer through each step, adapting the instructions to the rescuer’s actions. The Quick Shock feature of the HeartStart OnSite defibrillator enables the rescuer to administer a defibrillation shock in a mere 8 seconds. That’s two to three times faster than other defibrillators — and those extra seconds might make the difference between a successful rescue and a patient who doesn’t survive.
In addition, with Philips’ high current/low energy shocks, effective defibrillation is also gentle on fragile hearts. So the HeartStart OnSite defibrillator can deliver its most powerful therapy from the very first shock. You don’t have to take our word for it… more than 40 scientific studies have proven the effectiveness of the shocks provided by the HeartStart OnSite.
You can trust that your HeartStart OnSite defibrillator will be ready for action when you need it. Every HeartStart OnSite defibrillator must pass a rigorous 120 point factory test. It also automatically runs self-tests every single day, and even checks the electrode pads for readiness! For your part, it’s practically maintenance free.
