The most trusted AED on the market

With more than 700,000 units deployed worldwide, more workplaces, schools and communities place their trust in Philips HeartStart AEDs than any other brand when establishing early defibrillation programs. Philips has earned this trust because they demonstrate clinical leadership in both early defibrillation and quality CPR.

Key Facts about Philips & Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs)

Philips brings a legacy of resuscitation dating back to 1961, and spans the continuum of care from home to the hospital.  The introduction of the original Philips ForeRunner AED was a primary catalyst that launched the public access defibrillation movement more than 15 years ago. Philips experts are largely responsible for having defined the industry best practice for AED programs. With years of experience in the field with customers around the globe, they know what it takes to create a successful AED program.

Philips helped set up the early defibrillation programs of:

• 9 out of the top 10 US airlines
• 24 of the nation's busiest airports
• Over 85% of the US Fortune 100 companies
• School districts of some of the largest cities in America
