Information about the options for HeartStart MRx


Philips’ ST/AR Basic arrhythmia algorithm

  • Analyzes ECGs for heart rate while continuously
    monitoring for ventricular arrhythmia.
  • On-screen identification of 10 rhythm disturbances and irregularities; 5 life-threatening arrhythmias.
  • Generates visible and audible alarms as necessary.


Philips 12-Lead ECG

  • Removes noise and artifact before generating interpretive
    statements.
  • Detects early acute coronary syndromes for patients with
    symptoms of ST-segment elevation acute myocardial
    infarction (STEMI).
  • Pediatric Criteria Program which recognizes 12 distinct age
    groups under the age of 16.


Fourier Artifact Suppression Technology (FAST-SpO2)

  • Prevents false readings, drop-outs and false alarms caused
    by motion and other interferences.
  • Measures reliably even in the presence of low
    peripheral perfusion.


Oridion Microstream® Capnography (etCO2)

  • No zeroing, no heating and no sensor to interfere with
    the patient’s airway.
  • Works on both intubated and nonintubated patients, adult and pediatric.


Noninvasive Blood Pressure (NBP) SunTech ADVANTAGE® technology

  • Oscillometric, motion-tolerant.
  • Measures systolic and diastolic pressure and calculates mean arterial pressure.


Battery

  • 5 hours of battery time in monitor modus (incl. NBP every 15 min.).
  • Room for two batteries.
  • 100 full energy discharges on two batteries.
  • Charges to 80% in two hours, 100% in three.
  • In unit charging, optional external charger for 2 or 4 batteries.


Proven Therapies
SMART Biphasic Technology

The Biphasic pioneer with documented performance in more than 20 clinical papers. Based on this research SMART Biphasic is the only biphasic waveform to receive endorsement from AHA on class IIa recommendation. (Class IIa is defined as having “good to very good evidence”, a “standard of care”).


AED Mode

  • User interface similar to the AED market leader Forerunner/FR2.
  • Preset 150 Joules SMART Biphasic (non-escalating energy).


Manual Defibrillation

  • Defibrillates with either paddles or pads.
  • Pediatric settings(1-10J).
  • Manual energy selection.


Synchronized Cardioversion

  • On-screen, R-wave markers are shown above (or on)
    each detected R-wave.


Noninvasive Pacing

  • Demand and fixed modes.
  • 40 msec pulse width.
