For the ordinary person in the extraordinary moment, unsurpassed ease of use in 3 different published studies. Available without a prescription, the HeartStart OnSite Defibrillator is designed with innovative technology, based on extensive research and user feedback, that has produced a defibrillator so easy to use that you can potentially save the life of a co-worker, friend, or anyone else stricken with sudden cardiac arrest.
Weighing just 3.3 lbs., this small and lightweight defibrillator can be easily carried to the victim’s side. Using clear, natural voice instructions, the HeartStart OnSite Defibrillator guides you through each step of defibrillation. Designed to not slow you down or leave you behind, it paces and adapts voice instructions to your actions every step of the way. It even reminds you to call emergency medical services (EMS). On-demand CPR Coaching helps the stressed user recall their training.
Ready when needed. Every meticulously built HeartStart OnSite Defibrillator goes through a 120 point test before it leaves the factory. On the job, the OnSite automatically conducts self-tests every single day, not just weekly. It performs over 80 different tests in all. Even the pads are tested for readiness.
Effective. The electric medicine delivered by the HeartStart OnSite is the most proven in the industry. Over 40 studies confirm its effectiveness. Philips’ high-current/low energy therapy ensures a potent defibrillation dose, while minimizing side effects that are harmful to a fragile heart. So the OnSite can deliver its most powerful therapy from the very first shock.
Make the most of CPR. Recent studies have shown that CPR is even more vital to survival than previously realized. Yet its benefits dissipate in seconds. Delivering a shock quickly after chest compressions is critical. The HeartStart OnSite’s Quick Shock feature delivers therapy in just 8 seconds (typical) after chest compressions. Other devices can take 2 or 3 three times that, reducing the likelihood of shock success, and potentially, survival.
Give your early defibrillation program the best chance for success. With HeartStart Essentials AED Program Management Services (available in the US), Philips experts can draw on a wealth of experience to help you get your program started on the right foot, with pre-implementation consulting and site assessments. We can help manage your everyday needs, including medical direction from a licensed physician, AED/CPR training, web-based program management, and case management software.
Truncated Exponential Biphasic. Waveform parameters adjusted as a function of each patient’s impedance.
Therapy
Adult defibrillation peak current: 32A (150J nominal) into a 50 ohm load. Pediatric defibrillation (with optional Infant/Child SMART Pads Cartridge): 19A (50J nominal) into a 50 ohm load.
Shock-to-Shock Cycle Time
Typically less than 20 seconds between shocks in a series.
Quick Shock
Able to deliver a chock after the end of a CPR interval, typically in eight seconds.
Voice Instructions
Detailed voice messages guide responder through use of the defibrillator.
CPR Coaching
Instructions for adult and infant/child CPR available at user’s option.
Shock Delivery
Via adhesive pads placed on patient’s bare skin as illustrated on pads.
Controls
Green SMART Pads cartridge handle, green On/Off button, blue i-button, orange Shock button
Indicators
Ready light; blue i-button; caution light

Solid objects per EN60529 class IP2X Drip-proof per EN60529 class IPX1
Temperature
Operating: 32º - 122º F (0º - 50º C)
Standby: 50º - 109º F (10º - 43º C)
Humidity
Operating: 0% to 95% relative, non-condensing
Standby: 0% to 75% relative, non-condensing
Altitude
Operating: 0 to 15,000 ft (0 to 4,500 m)

Shock/Drop Abuse
Withstands 1 meter drop to any edge, corner or surface.
Vibration
Meets EN1789 random and swept sine, road ambulance specification in operating and standby states.
EMI (Radiated/Immunity)
Meets EN55011 Group 1 Level B Class B and EN61000-4-3.
Patient Analysis System
Patient Analysis
Evaluates patient ECG to determine if a rhythm is shockable. Rhythms considered shockable are ventricular fibrillation (VF) and certain ventricular tachycardias (VT) associated with lack of circulation. For safety reasons, some VT rhythms associated with circulation will not be interpreted as shockable, and some very low-amplitude or low-frequency rhythms will not be interpreted as shockable VF.
Sensitivity/Specificity
Meets AAMI DF80 guidelines and AHA recommendations for adult defibrillation (Circulation 1997;95:1677-1682).
Artifact Detection
The effects of pacemaker artifact and electrical noise are minimized with artifact detection.
Battery Type (M5070A)
9 Volt DC, 4.2 Ah, composed of disposable long-life lithium manganese dioxide primary cells.
Capacity
Minimum 200 shocks or 4 hours of operating time (EN 60601-2-4:2003)
Install-By-Date
Battery is labeled with an install-by date of at least five years from date of manufacture.
Standby Life
Four years typical when battery is installed by the install-by date. (Will power the AED in standby state within the specified standby Temperature range, assuming one battery insertion test and no defibrillation uses.)
