LIFEPAK® 500

Automated external defibrillators (AEDs) are the key link in the Chain of Survival, and provide precise therapy for sudden cardiac arrest by delivering an electrical waveform, or more simply, a shock to the heart. This treatment must be delivered within a 7 to 10 minute window of opportunity to provide a meaningful chance of survival.

AEDs are designed specifically for the first responder at an emergency... typically a layperson. The U.S. survival rate is expected to increase dramatically with the expanded awareness and placement of AEDs. We strongly encourage you or your company to contact NKH Lifesafety LLC., today for more information about the placement of the LIFEPAK 500 AED in your home, workplace, or community.

Why the LIFEPAK® 500 AED?

• Medtronic Emergency Response invented the first external defibrillator 40 years ago. Today they are the world's largest provider of external defibrillators.
• They offer one of the largest and best-trained networks of technical service representatives in the medical device industry. On site service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. 5-year warranty on parts and labor. This is an exclusive feature.
• The American Heart Association's guidelines recommend escalating energy levels of 200j, 300j, and 360j.
• The LIFEPAK 500 meets these guidelines. The LIFEPAK 500 is the only AED that adapts to patients by measuring impedance, adapts to current international guidelines 2000, and adapts to current protocols. Adaptive Biphasic Technology with escalating energy provides a range of energy levels to match protocols. This technology avoids the time and expense of re-training now and provides for future changes in protocols. Simple two button operation. Voice prompts guide user through CPR and defibrillation. LCD display provides backup in noisy situations. Self-testing. LIFEPAK 500 will perform a comprehensive self-test each morning at 3:00am. Unit will beep every 20 seconds if a fault is detected. Five-year battery system. No charging or maintenance required. Patented motion detection that recognizes patient movement caused by the provider. This artifact can cause a non-shockable rhythm to appear shockable and visa versa. This feature prompts the rescuer not to touch the patient. This is an exclusive feature. Compatibility with local EMS. 8 out of 10 responding units across the country will arrive with a LIFEPAK defibrillator. This allows the patient to be handed off to the rescue squad without delay of changing electrodes. Partnership in implementing your AED program. Medtronic Emergency Response will coordinate training throughout all of your facilities along with advising on proper placements of the units.
