Defibtech, manufacturer of the award-winning, price and performance leading Lifeline™ brand automated external defibrillator (AEDs) and training products, announced that its entire line of AEDs and AED Trainers can be upgraded in the field to meet the new American Heart Association (AHA) Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and Emergency Cardiovascular Care (ECC). Defibtech products will also meet the European Resuscitation Council (ERC) Guidelines for Resuscitation 2005. Every Defibtech Rescue AED or Training AED ever made can be easily upgraded.

Defibtech will be making upgrade software available to its customers through its distributor partners in the near future. "From the very beginning, when we were designing our AEDs and trainers, we anticipated that rescue protocols might change someday," said Defibtech President Gintaras Vaisnys. "Consistent with our goal of bringing practical real-world value to our customers, we planned ahead and designed all of our products so that they could easily be upgraded without taking them out of service."

The Defibtech upgrade process can be done in less than a minute at the very location where the AED is deployed. This means that for any future changes to protocol recommendations, whether they be later this year or five years from now, Defibtech AED owners will be able to upgrade their AEDS and training products using this same simple process.

Survival Group will contact all of our customers to arrange upgrading their AEDs as soon as the software is made available to us.
