Description
This HeartSine Samaritan 500p Defibrillator thinks for itself and gives real-time feedback on CPR with visual and verbal prompts. One of the only Defibrillators that corrects the rescuer for better survival outcomes, making it a clear choice for minimal training and used as a public assessable AED.
Specially designed for use in all conditions, the HeartSine® Samaritan® PAD 500P Defibrillator is a sophisticated, lightweight and fully automatic defibrillator for adult or paediatric use. The HeartSine® design is easy-to-operate and durable with voice and visual prompts, helping the user through pad placement and CPR in an emergency.

How the HeartSine 500p AED works
CPR, Cardio (heart) Pulmonary (lung) Resuscitation, combines compressing the heart to circulate blood to all the vital organs and, at the same time, breathing into the victim to supply oxygen.
The HeartSine 500P defibrillator provides the rescuer with real-time instructions regarding compressions with audible “Good Compressions” or “Push Harder,” “Push Faster” and “Push Slower.” These instructions also are displayed on the face of the device in order to ensure the rescuer performs the most effective CPR.
Impedance Cardiogram (ICG) analysis is embedded in the software, which guides the user in the required force and speed of compressions for the victim. The ICG measures impedance changes in the chest cavity, which helps determine effective CPR. Because the ICG is related to how fast the compressions are applied, as well as how hard, the 500P can guide the user on both rate and depth.
After being instructed to “Begin CPR,” an audible beep for the appropriate cadence will help the rescuer keep time when performing compressions. The objective during CPR using the 500P is to hear “Good Compressions” and to see green on the CPR indicator.
Defibrillation is easy, CPR is the hard part. The HeartSine Samaritan PAD 500P provides all the advantages of the 360P/350P with the addition of an innovative CPR Advisor. Regardless of whether it is a lay person or a professional rescuer, the AHA/ERC guidelines place a greater emphasis on the importance of CPR and advocate the prompt initiation of effective bystander CPR to significantly reduce mortality due to out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrest.
