ZOLL AED Plus

The ZOLL AED PLUS is ZOLL Corporation’s Automated External Defibrillator for the public-access market. It represents the work of the second biggest defibrillator manufacturer in the world at coming up with an AED unit for the non-professional rescuer.

PROVEN WAVEFORM TECHNOLOGY
The ZOLL AED PLUS unit is incorporates Rectilinear Biphasic Technology - branded by the FDA as superior to monophasic waveforms in converting ventricular fibrillation in high-impedance patients. Unlike some competing units, the ZOLL AED PLUS uses low-energy biphasic impulses with a maximum delivery of 200 joules to convert ventricular fibrillation without the undue damage to heart muscle that is possible with higher energy shocks.

NOT JUST AN AED, BUT A TOTAL RESUSCITATION SYSTEM
The ZOLL AED PLUS does more than just deliver electrical therapy. It coaches the rescuer through the assessment for CPR. Procedures such as calling EMS and checking for breathing and circulation are depicted in the flashing graphics and through verbal prompts. When performing CPR, the ZOLL AED PLUS gives feedback to the rescuer by measuring the amount of pressure applied to the patient's chest and providing corrective advice such as "PUSH HARDER" or "GOOD COMPRESSIONS". The unit's metronome will beep at the recommended 100 compressions per minute rate to keep rescuers on the correct pace for chest compressions. No other AED has so many CPR resuscitation features.

SIMPLE FOR COMMUNITY RESCUERS, PACKED WITH FEATURES FOR PROFESSIONALS
For groups with good EKG skills, the ZOLL AED PLUS can be configured to display an EKG trace. This allows clinical facilities to have some insight on the activity of the heart during the resuscitation process. The unit's CPR enhancement features are also helpful as research suggests that saturation and fatigue tend to cause even professional rescuers to perform less-than-perfect CPR as resuscitation time goes on.

SIMPLE TO MAINTAIN
The ZOLL AED PLUS works on consumer Lithium 123 batteries. This makes the cost of ownership of the unit significantly less than competing units with proprietary batteries. Consider that most occupational settings end up not using their AED on a patient for years - the $100 - $250 cost of each proprietary battery that is consumed every 2 or so years (batteries have a 5-7 shelf life, but they get used up more quickly in a machine dues to self testing) tend to drive up the cost of owning a traditional AED.

The consumer lithium batteries are also very reliable. The ZOLL unit runs on 10 batteries that provide 300 shocks in a resuscitation. Even with if 5 individual batteries failed (an astronomically unlikely scenario), the unit would be able to deliver 150 shocks (more than enough to work many average resuscitations).
