Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is the difference between the Powerheart G5 and G3 AED?
The Powerheart G5 is a more advanced model compared to the older G3 AED. While the G3 AED is no longer sold by the manufacturer, you can still find replacement pads and batteries for it.
What is the importance of the Intellisense CPR puck?
The Intellisense CPR puck is an essential component that ensures high-quality chest compressions during CPR. While the device includes a CPR Coach feature that provides step-by-step guidance, it's the CPR puck that delivers real-time feedback, such as “Press Harder,” “Press Slower,” and more. This live feedback helps both experienced and first-time responders perform effective chest compressions.
What is the shelf life of the Powerheart G5 battery, and how long can it operate once installed?
The battery in the Powerheart G5 has a 5-year shelf life from the date of manufacture. Once installed, it provides up to 4 years of full operational life, ensuring that the AED stays ready for use throughout its lifespan. The battery can still deliver shocks even when low, with a minimum of six shocks remaining.
Is the Powerheart G5 easy to use in noisy environments?
Yes! The Powerheart G5 features clear voice prompts that are designed to be heard even in noisy environments like busy offices, schools, or public spaces. The device adjusts the volume based on the ambient noise level to ensure the instructions are clearly understood.
