October 14, 2003 : "An average of ten people die from a sudden heart attack EVERY HOUR. Early defibrillation is the single most important remedy to saving the life of a victim who is suffering from ventricular fibrillation", says Pravin Gandhi, Director Schiller Healthcare India Pvt. Ltd. Fred®
Easy, the biphasic defibrillator with Multipulse Biowave technology from Schiller helps in reviving the heart. With its unique Biphasic waveforms, it delivers both a positive and a negative current that together results in a successful defibrillation. This new and gentle method of reviving victims of cardiac arrest is especially designed to help lay people operate the machine as an emergency aid.
While using only 1/3 of the energy needed for Monophasic defibrillation, Fred®
Easy protects the heart from burns and ensures faster recovery. Where as in
Monophasic defibrillation the excess energy remains in the heart which can cause refibrillation and burning of the heart tissue.
Fred® Easy's 3 step operation & voice driven menu makes it user friendly for hospitals and nursing homes, empowering them with confidence and invaluable life-saving preparedness.
Features of Fred® Easy:
-
Unique Multipulse Biowave® Technology - energy is passed in two phases in multiple pulse, neutralising excess energy.
-
Energy levels are chosen automatically depending on the impedance of the skin.
-
Delivers an exact amount of current that the patient requires and saves his heart from burning, ensuring faster recovery.
-
Easy 3 step operation - START-ANALYSIS-SHOCK.
-
Voice driven menu - allows any lay person to operate the machine.
-
User friendly LCD screen (display of time, number of shocks, battery and memory capacity, electrode type, text instructions).
-
If the patient's heart is not fibrillating, it does not deliver any shock.
-
Quick charging time less than 10 seconds.
-
This new gentle defibrillation method can considerably increase the chances of survival of the patient.
