Defibrillatori

The samaritan® PAD 500P defibrillator is described by the manufacturer as the first and only defibrillator to guide users in performing CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) correctly. Immediate defibrillation is important, but may not be sufficient without effective chest compressions. The samaritan® PAD 500P can assess the effectiveness of CPR in real time and guide the rescuer in adjusting their technique when necessary. See all features in the “DESCRIPTION” section.

The Stryker® samaritan® PAD 360P is the fully automatic version of the PAD 350P. It is an automated external defibrillator (AED) that needs only to be attached to the patient and switched on. The original Italian text incorrectly describes it as semi-automatic. Single-button operation is designed to be simple: the SAM 360P has only a power button, so the operator does not have to press a shock button when advised. Delivering a shock can be stressful for inexperienced users, who may fear injuring the patient or themselves. With fully automatic operation, the indicated shock is delivered without waiting for the user to press a button. See all features in the DESCRIPTION section.

The Stryker® samaritan® PAD 350P semi-automatic defibrillator is an advanced medical device designed for use by laypeople. In a sudden cardiac arrest, it can help a bystander respond. Calm, repeated voice and visual prompts guide the rescuer through the process, making it suitable for people without professional medical training.
