Laerdal Heartstart FR2 w/ Pads, Battery & Data Card Tray Features:

 The Laerdal Heartstart FR2 AEDs are designed specifically for use by first responders.

They allow these AEDs to be used by people with little medical training in places where defibrillators have not traditionally been used.

Factors that had to be considered in their design included the fact that an AED might not be used very often, might be subjected to harsh environments, and probably would not have personnel available to perform regular maintenance.

The FR2 series defibrillators were not designed to replace the manual defibrillators used by more highly trained individuals.

Instead, they are intended to complement the efforts of medical personnel skilled in advanced life support, by allowing the initial shock to be delivered by a first responder.

Some models of these AEDs can be configured for advanced mode use, to allow the device to be used as a manual defibrillator. This can be beneficial for transitioning patient care from a first responder to more highly trained medical personnel.
