The LIFEPAK EXPRESS® AED from Medtronic Physio-Control is designed to be used by the first person to respond to a sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) victim – easily, safely, and effectively. Although not everyone can be saved from sudden cardiac arrest, studies show that early defibrillation can dramatically improve survival rates. And because some people are more difficult to defibrillate than others – and may need more than 200J – the LIFEPAK EXPRESS AED has the capability to escalate energy up to an industry-leading 360J.

The LIFEPAK EXPRESS® AED is built with the same advanced technology trusted by more EMS and medical professionals than any other brand. The LIFEPAK EXPRESS AED features:  1. Lowest long-term cost of ownership in the industry  2. Escalating energy to 360 Joules—the only low cost AED on the market to do so.  3. Easy Maintenance—synchronized 2 year replacement cycle for the battery and electrodes.   The LIFEPAK EXPRESS defibrillator is an automated external defibrillator (AED). For many years, defibrillators have been used only by medical professionals to treat victims in sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). Today, the ability of defibrillators to save lives is so widely recognized that people once trained to do only cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) can now use defibrillators. After electrode pads are applied to the victim’s chest, the LIFEPAK EXPRESS analyzes the victim’s heart rhythm. If a shockable rhythm is detected, the LIFEPAK EXPRESS will either deliver an intense pulse of electricity (shock) to the heart muscle (fully automatic model) or direct the responder to deliver the shock (semiautomatic model). The defibrillator delivers shocks through the electrode pads on the victim’s chest. When this pulse of electricity is delivered, it is called defibrillation. Defibrillation is recognized for treating life-threatening heart beat irregularities, such as ventricular fibrillation, that cause SCA. The LIFEPAK EXPRESS defibrillator is designed specifically for infrequent use and for use by people whose only training is in CPR and in using AEDs.  AED users should have CPR and AED training. LIFEPAK AEDs require a prescription. Please consult your physician
