Philips HeartStart OnSite Defibrillator

The HeartStart OnSite Defibrillator, available from Banyan, is designed for ease-of-use and reliability. Pulling the green handle activates the defibrillator and voice instructions. These instructions are paced to the responder's actions to help guide her through the entire process - from placing each pad on the patient to delivering a defibrillation shock.

SMART Technology

HeartStart OnSite includes proven Philips technologies for heart rhythm assessment (SMART Analysis) and defibrillation energy delivery (SMART Biphasic). And like all HeartStart Defibrillators, it can be used to treat infants and children as well as adults.

HeartStart OnSite determines if a heart rhythm is shockable

If a shock is indicated, the defibrillator directs the responder to press the flashing orange Shock button. Then HeartStart OnSite delivers a dose of low-energy biphasic therapy, a highly-effective defibrillation waveform that is also gentle to the heart.

If a shock is not indicated, the OnSite Defibrillator instructs the responder to perform CPR. While performing CPR, the defibrillator's voice instructions can be activated to coach her on the frequency and depth of compressions as well as breaths. Should EMS need a summary of care, it can be retrieved from the defibrillator's internal memory.

Ready when needed

The OnSite has a long-life battery life (5-year shelf life plus 4-year installed life). Daily self-tests check electrical components, subsystems and the battery. A self-test also verifies that the pads cartridge is installed and in working order. A blinking green "Ready" light means the HeartStart OnSite Defibrillator has passed its last self-test, so you can be confident the defibrillator is ready for use.
