Defibrillators
Manual and semi-automatic defibrillators, and AEDs.
What is a defibrillator?
A defibrillator delivers an electric shock to restore an effective heart rhythm. Hospital department models combine manual defibrillation, semi-automatic mode, external cardiac pacing and patient monitoring in a single portable device.

Where is it used?
The defibrillator equips crash carts, intensive care units, operating theatres and ambulances. Its immediate availability takes priority over any other consideration: charged battery, electrodes within their expiry date, device checked. Hospital models combine manual defibrillation, semi-automatic mode and external pacing in a single device, which avoids multiplying equipment on the cart. Staff training and periodic checks matter as much as the choice of model: a defibrillator that has not been checked is equipment that is not available.
What to check before choosing?
- Available modes: manual, semi-automatic (AED), external pacemaker
- Parameters monitored during resuscitation: ECG, SpO2, capnography
- Battery autonomy and charge time between two shocks
- Weight and robustness, decisive for use in mobile interventions
