The Medtronic/Physio Control LifePak Express AED includes the following:
The LifePak Express has an escalating energy setting of 200J, 300J, and then 360J. The energy will keep increasing until it reaches 360J. The AED will shock at 360J for the remaining of the shocks until the victim is no longer in ventricle fibrillation. The LifePak Express also has a motion detector in case the patient moves or if a responder is touching the patient prior to the shock. The motion detector will not show if there is movement from the victim’s body.
The LifePak Express is a semi-automatic AED. The semi-automatic LifePak Express has a three step process in order for the AED to deliver the shock. The responder must turn on the AED, apply the pads, and finally press the shock button to be able to deliver the shock to the victim.
The LifePak Express will give voice prompts during the rescue to make it easy for the responder to know which step is next.
The LifePak Express performs self-tests to ensure the AED is fully operational. With its visible readiness display, it is easy to see that the LifePak Express is ready when seconds count. The LifePak Express offers a unique feature; it has an internal battery that is charged by the CHARGE-PAK battery to keep it at its optimal level.
