Automatic External Defibrillator
The Powerheart G3 Automatic delivers life-saving defibrillation therapy without requiring the user to press a shock button. Once the user places the pads, the device does the rest: analyzes the heart rhythm, instructs the user to stand clear and, if necessary, delivers a shock. Automated voice prompts guide the user through the entire process.
The RescueReady technology performs automatic self test on the defibrillation pads, battery and electronic systems. The Powerheart G3-Automatic uses also the STAR biphasic defibrillation technology and analysis software.
