DESCRIPTION

The LIFEPAK EXPRESS defibrillator is designed for safe and simple use by the first person at the scene of a sudden cardiac arrest. An internal computer analyzes the heart rhythm and guides the user step-by-step with clear, calm voice prompts. A centrally located flashing shock button will alert the rescuer if the defibrillator determines a shock is needed.                      QUIK-PAK™ electrodes are easy to use and connect with all Medtronic defibrillators, which allows for smooth transition of the patient from the scene of a cardiac arrest to the ambulance and into the hospital. Infant/Child Reduced Energy Defibrillation Electrodes make therapy available to even the youngest victims of sudden cardiac arrest.                      The rugged design and ease of use make the EXPRESS an excellent choice where the first responders will be minimally trained; the advanced technology and features make it the device of choice for many professional responders.                      The defibrillator uses the latest ADAPTIV™ biphasic technology, which automatically adjusts the shock waveform based on the persons need. The device can provide additional shocks of up to 360 joules if the heart doesnt respond to the first shock.
