Paediatric electrodes for Philips HeartStart HS1<\/strong> are paediatric electrodes (Infant\/Child SMART Pads Cartridge) for the Philips HeartStart HS1<\/a>defibrillator, intended for children under 8 years of age and under 25 kg. They have a shelf life of approx. 24 months.<\/p>\n

The electrodes are packed in a rigid plastic cartridge that protects them from drying out and damage and connects directly to the defibrillator. A strong hydrogel adhesive makes them easy to apply, and the active electrode area (85 cm\u00b2) is suited to a child. The defibrillator detects if the electrodes have dried out and tells you when they need replacing.<\/p>\n

The cartridge and each electrode carry a graphic showing how to place them on a child's chest. The lead is approx. 135 cm long. The electrodes are single-use and may only be used on one patient. Paediatric electrodes for Philips HeartStart HS1<\/strong> are worth having with every defibrillator in places with children.<\/p>\n

For adults use the electrodes for Philips HeartStart HS1<\/a>, and for training \u2013 HS1 training set<\/a>. Paediatric electrodes for Philips HeartStart HS1<\/strong> do not fit the FRx model.<\/p>\n

Why paediatric electrodes for Philips HeartStart HS1 in a cartridge?<\/h2>\n

A cartridge means fast replacement and constant monitoring \u2013 the defibrillator checks the electrodes every day, so you know they are ready. In a school, preschool or at a swimming pool, a spare paediatric cartridge with the HS1 lets you switch immediately to helping a child.<\/p>\n

You will find other electrodes in the category AED defibrillator accessories<\/a>.<\/p>\n

An AED on a child \u2013 it can and must be used<\/h2>\n

For a child in sudden cardiac arrest, an AED should be used as soon as possible. If you have paediatric electrodes, use them; if not, use standard adult electrodes, because delay is more dangerous than higher energy. On a small child the electrodes are usually placed on the front and back of the chest so that they do not touch. Remember that in children cardiac arrest most often has a respiratory cause, which is why CPR starts with 5 rescue breaths.<\/p>\n

We describe the basics of resuscitation in the guide chapter Basic life support: CPR<\/a>.<\/p>\n
