LIFEPAK
CR Plus AED and your dialysis clinic
Many dialysis patients have co-morbid conditions that can easily
lead to a medical emergency. Sudden cardiac arrest occurs without
warning, and when such an emergency unfolds, the situation can
be further complicated if there is no physician present or if
the arrival of EMS personnel is delayed. This is when you need
the LIFEPAK CR Plus automated external defibrillator.
Why LIFEPAK CR Plus AED should be part of your dialysis clinic’s
response protocol
A
lifesaver in your clinic
Dialysis
clinics are busy places, and with an increasing number of
people facing kidney failure, they are going to become busier.
The CR Plus features easy-to-use voice prompts and visual
cues that walk the care provider through the defibrillation
process step-by-step. With minimal training, any dialysis
staff person can deliver lifesaving treatment quickly and
effectively. The CR Plus saves training time and money when
compared with traditional crash carts. The CR Plus, which
comes with a five-year warranty, is not only an excellent
value–it can be a lifesaver in your clinic.
Nine
out of the top 10 emergency medical services rely on LIFEPAK
defibrillators
Of the
advanced defibrillators used outside the hospital, 7 out of
10 are LIFEPAK devices. Once your staff initiates a rescue
with the CR Plus, the arriving EMS technician has the ability
to unplug the electrode cables from the LIFEPAK CR Plus AED
without removing the electrodes from the patient. The cables
can be easily and quickly plugged into the LIFEPAK system
that is being used by the EMS technician, thus providing effective
continuity of care.
The
LIFEPAK CR Plus AED does everything for you
The LIFEPAK
CR Plus AED analyzes the heart’s rhythm and delivers
a shock if it detects one is needed. This feature is designed
to eliminate the guesswork from the lifesaving process, as
well as the potential for error. The CR Plus is not only available
in the semi-automatic version, but also available in a fully
automatic version–an industry first. The semi-automatic
model requires only three steps to administer a potentially
lifesaving shock; the automatic requires just two steps.
