With more than 175,000 devices deployed, Philips is the worldwide market leader in portable defibrillators on airplanes, and in airports, workplaces, communities, and homes. The Philips HeartStart Home Defibrillator is the first and only home defibrillator available without a prescription for use by virtually anyone to help save a life when minutes count. This award-winning defibrillator has consistently been recognized for its ease of use. Keep it on-hand at home, or take it with you when you travel.

Weighing just 3.3 lbs., this small and lightweight defibrillator can be easily carried to the patients side. Using clear, natural voice instructions, the Heartstart Home Defibrillator guides you, the first caregiver on the scene, through each step of defibrillation and CPR. Integrated SMART Pads placed on the patients bare skin transmit information to the defibrillator, which senses and adapts to your actions every step of the way. HeartStart Home Defibrillator includes proven Philips technologies for heart rhythm assessment (SMART Analysis) and defibrillation energy delivery (SMART Biphasic).

Note: Approximately 340,000 people in the U.S. die from SCA (Sudden Cardiac Arrest) each year.

Fewer than 5% of SCA victims survive, largely because a defibrillator does not arrive in time. That's why Philips developed HeartStart which is the first and only home defibrillator available for over-the-counter purchase. HeartStart was specifically designed to treat the most common underlying cause of SCA and for use in the home.
