AED PLUS (ZOLL)

•A one-piece CPR-D-padz Electrode for quick, easy application. Pull-tabs expose the conductive gel on each pad only when it is in direct contact with the skin, limiting the chance of gel contamination.

•A rescue accessory package attached to every CPR-D-padz that contains items critical to a successful rescue.

•A lid that acts as a “passive airway support” to maintain the victim’s open airway.

•A back-lit display screen that provides simultaneous text with every audio prompt, and a circle of lighted graphical icons that show what to do.

•A display screen that presents the elapsed time and number of shocks delivered, critical information needed by EMS personnel when they arrive.

•Real CPR Help. No other AED can see the rescuers chest compressions and guide them to the required depth and rate. Other AEDs make you guess when your compressions are deep enough. Only the AED Plus lets you know.

Measuring Chest Compression with Real CPR Help

The force required to depress the chest during CPR varies with the patient’s size and build. The standard measure of chest compression quality, however, is not force but depth. The Real CPR Help

 technology in ZOLL’s CPR- D- padz includes a hand-placement locator, an accelerometer, electronics, and a processing algorithm that work together to measure vertical displacement in space as each compression occurs.

One Size Fits All

ZOLL’s one-piece electrode design accounts for anatomical variation. Based on extensive human data, CPR- D- padz meet the anthropometric chest characteristics of 99% of the population. If needed, the lower (apex) electrode can be separated and adjusted to accommodate the remaining 1% of the population.

Simplified Placement

Affixing two separate electrode pads to the patient’s bare chest can be confusing to a lay rescuer. ZOLL’s CPR- D- padz simplify this step by guiding placement of the red crosshairs at the centre of the

Imaginary line connecting the patient’s nipples. Once in place, the hand-locator and the two electrode pads fall naturally into optimal position for both defibrillation and CPR.

Five-Year Shelf Life

All AED electrodes transmit defibrillating electricity into the patient via metal in close contact with a salt-infused gel that is positioned between the metal and the skin. Over time, however, the saltine the gel will corrode the metal and eventually compromise electrode functionality. ZOLL’s novel electrode design includes a sacrificial element that prevents significant corrosion for five years, which is unmatched in the market today.
