Philips Heartstart FR1 Specifications Dimensions Size: 2.53” h x 8.75” w x 8” d (64 mm x 223 mm x 203 mm) Weight: 2 kg (4.4 lbs) with batteries installed Defibrillator Waveform Truncated exponential biphasic. Waveform parameters are adjusted as a function of patient defibrillation impedance. Energy Selection Single energy – a nominal of 150 joules (minimum of 130 joules) delivered to a 50 ohm load. Charge Control Under control of the Patient Analysis System for semi-automatic operation. Charge Time Typically less than 10 seconds. Charge time increases at the end of battery life as well as at temperatures below 10°C. Shock-to-Schok Cycle Time Typically less than 20 seconds (including analysis time) in semi-automatic mode. Charge Conplete Indication ForeRunner is “armed” when shock button is flashing and armed tone is activated. Shock Discharge Control Shock is delivered by a single shock button. Disarm Semi-automatic operation: Once the device is charged, it will disarm under any of the following conditions: a no shock decision is reached; the on/off button is pressed and the device is turned off; the defibrillation pads are removed from the patient or the pads connector is disconnected from the defibrillator. Manual operation: Once the device is charged, it will disarm under any of the following conditions: 30 seconds after charging if a shock is not delivered; manually by pressing the manual override button; the on/off button is pressed and the device is turned off; the defibrillation pads are removed from the patient or the pads connector is disconnected from the defibrillator. Shock Delivery Via defibrillation pads placed in the anterior-anterior (Lead II) position. ECG Display Monitored Lead ECG information is acquired through defibrillation pads in anterior-anterior (Lead II) placement. Display Range Differential: ±2 mV full scale nominal. Screen High resolution LCD with backlight. Screen Size 2.8” w x 2.3” h (70 mm x 58 mm) Sweep Speed 23 mm/sec nominal. Frequency Response Nondiagnostic rhythm monitor 1 Hz to 20 Hz (-3 dB) nominal. Sensitivity 1.16 cm/mV nominal. Heart Rate Displays a range of 30 to 300 bpm updated each analysis period. Heart rate is displayed only during monitoring mode and if ECG is displayed. Battery Type 18 VDC 1300 mAh lithium. Disposable, recyclable, long-life, primary cells. Capacity A new battery typically will provide 100 shocks or 5 hours if operating time, or 10 hours of training time at 25°C. Low Battery. Detection Defibrillator detects low battery condition during daily periodic self tests. Replace the battery when the Status Indicator shows a solid or flashing red X.
General Information AEDs There are Two Main Types of AED Defibrillators Automated External Defibrillator (AED) Used by lay persons requiring little training Built in heart rhythm analyzer Advices whether shock is required Semi-Automated External Defibrillators Used by paramedics and emergency medical technicians Automated capabilities of AED With ECG display and manual over ride option
