• SMART CPR: First-of-its-kind technology that automatically advises a responder whether to provide an immediate defibrillation shock, or CPR followed by a shock, when treating a patient in ventricular fibrillation (VF), the most common heart rhythm associated with cardiac arrest. SMART CPR helps the responder make better-informed treatment decisions. SMART CPR is a feature available only on the Philips HeartStart FR2+ (AED). • Quick Shock: Technology which enables a defibrillation shock to be delivered quickly after CPR is stoppedup to three times faster than other solutions on the market. Quick Shock is only available in the HeartStart FR2+, FRx, and OnSite Defibrillators. • CPR Coaching: A coaching tool for both adult and infant/child CPR provides audio cues for each breath as well as the appropriate number, depth, and rate of chest compressions. This technology is available on the HeartStart FRx and OnSite Defibrillators.
