Powerheart G3 Plus AED (automated external defibrillator) offers a combination of reliability, ease-of-use and advanced technology features, according to the product’s manufacturer Cardiac Science. Powerheart features the new Rescue Coach intuitive voice prompts, which guide the first aid attendant through the rescue process, providing instructions aligned with the AHA/ERC 2005 Guidelines, the company says. Rescue Coach was designed using the results of a human behaviour study, Cardiac Science says. Powerheart also features Rescue Ready, a daily, weekly and monthly self-test system that validates reliability and ensures that critical components such as pads, battery and internal circuitry are always in working order, the company says. The AED also includes non-polarized defibrillation pads to simplify the placement process, as either pad can be placed in the upper right chest or lower left chest area, the company says.
