Philips HeartStart XL Defibrillator

Description

The Philips HeartStart XL Defibrillator is a reliable and versatile device designed for use in clinical and hospital environments.

It combines manual defibrillation capabilities with an AED (automated external defibrillator) mode, allowing both advanced life support (ALS) providers and basic life support (BLS) responders to use it effectively.

The unit delivers biphasic shocks from 2 to 200 joules, a range that ensures effective defibrillation while minimizing cardiac tissue damage. It also offers ECG monitoring, a built-in recorder for data documentation, and a clear, easy-to-read display.

Designed for fast response in critical situations, the HeartStart XL features a straightforward interface with color-coded controls and voice/text prompts in AED mode.

It operates on both AC power and a rechargeable battery, making it highly portable and dependable for emergency response teams in a variety of care settings.

Key Features

SMART Biphasic Technology
Philips patented SMART Biphasic waveform is clinically proven superior to high-energy, monophasic waveforms for efficacy and for minimizing post-defibrillation heart dysfunction.
Impedance Compensation. Measures chest impedance and delivers a low-energy shock based on patient’s unique physical requirements.
Quick Charging. Charges to highest energy level, 200 Joules, in less than 3 seconds.
Synchronized Cardioversion. Philips’ SMART Biphasic waveform has undergone clinical testing, demonstrating its effectiveness for cardioversion of atrial fibrillation. 4
Easy to Use:
- 1-2-3 Operation. True 1-2-3 operation makes defibrillation intuitive for all users.
- AED Mode. Voice and text prompts guide users through the defibrillation process. 150 Joules non-escalating, pre-set energy level.
- Paddles (optional). Anterior/anterior adult paddles convert to pediatric by removing the outer contacts.
- Multi-function Defibrillator Pads. Adult and pediatric pads for defibrillation, ECG monitoring, pacing, and synchronized cardioversion.
Data Management and Reporting
All patient data, including continuous ECG and events (i.e. shock and alarms), are stored in the unit’s internal memory and on an optional data card. When used with the Philips CodeRunner Web data management system, users can edit, store, and print reports required for quality control and reporting.
Lightweight, Compact, Durable:
- Grab and Go. Less than 14 pounds (6.35kg).
- Compact. Easily fits on a standard hospital stretcher.
- Rugged. Withstands the rigors of hospital use and patient transport.
