Description: The system continuously monitors heart activity and warns of any abnormalities by voice command. If the affected person does not react, resuscitation begins automatically - even if they are unconscious. If the process is stopped manually, unnecessary treatment shocks are prevented in the event of incorrect arrhythmia detection. It takes less than a minute from detection to shock delivery. If the arrhythmia persists, up to five further shocks can follow. The system is worn as a vest with a belt to which a monitor is attached for monitoring. The data is automatically transmitted to the LifeVest network and can be viewed online by the treatment team. Features / components: - Technology: Automated External Defibrillator (AED) - Defibrillator: fully automatic - Operation: no intervention by other people necessary - Electrodes: but automatically gel out before a shock - LifeVest-Network: wireless data transmission and control
