All statistics
show that the more remote the situation, the more critical the
need for an AED. The chances of survival for a person suffering
ventricular fibrillation (heart attack) are virtually zero, unless
they receive a shock from an AED within 10 minutes of fibrillation.
For every minute that goes by after fibrillation, the chances
of survival drops by 10 percent. So, if the cardiac event happens
onboard a vessel, a person’s only chance for survival is
an AED, and someone who knows how to use it, being close at hand.
AED's are a
prescriptive device, requiring a qualified physician’s prescription
in order to be purchased. In working with MMI, all of these requirements
are automatically provided for clients. And, rather than just
a product orientation, MMI provides crew with full AED & CPR
training and complete quality assurance services.
The Heartstream FR2 is a portable, lightweight automatic external defibrillator (AED) that requires minimal device training to use and is an essential part of administering first aid immediately to a victim of sudden cardiac arrest.
Due to its easy-to-use design, superior technology and affordability, Heartstream AEDs are becoming a standard safety item on board yachts. This innovative AED technology has also enabled a broader range of people - especially yacht crew - to provide lifesaving therapy. The Heartstream FR2 AED operates with long-life maintenance-free, lithium manganese batteries, which are designed specifically for high-volume consumer applications, where safety and reliability are of the utmost importance.
The Heartstream FR2 performs daily automated self-tests that check readiness for use. Other features include easy-to-follow voice prompts, and a bright LCD display to reinforce the voice prompts, making it easy to use in noisy or dark settings; the FR2 also has enhanced features that can be enabled for improved hand-off to advanced life support (ALS) responders. Additionally, the FR2 has on-board training capabilities when used with the fully rechargeable Training and Administration Pack. This allows users to safely train on the FR2 using realistic training scenarios.
The Heartstream FR2 AED incorporates a number of breakthrough technologies that distinguish it from other AEDs on the market, including Philips' low-energy SMART Biphasic technology. Additionally, the Philips SMART Analysis system automatically determines if a shock is required and protects against inappropriate delivery of a shock. This feature eliminates the need for the operator to be trained in reading and interpreting the patient's electrocardiogram (ECG).
