As of June 2009, Philips Medical has discontinued the production of New FR-2+ AED Defibrillators. Philips will continue to support the FR-2 with Accessories and Service for the next 7 years. We do have a limited supply of Demo and Refurbished units, and also recommend the Philips FRx AED as a subsitute.****
The therapy delivered by the HeartStart FR2+ AED Defibrillator is the most proven in the industry. More than 40 studies confirm its effectiveness. Philips' high-current/low energy therapy ensures a potent defibrillation dose, while at the same time, minimizing side effects that may be harmful to a fragile heart. So the HeartStart FR2+ can deliver its most powerful therapy from the very first shock. There's no need to hold back.

SMART CPR
Research shows that for some patients, especially those in long-duration cardiac arrest, CPR prior to defibrillation may provide more benefit.1,2 The SMART CPR algorithm of the HeartStart FR2+ Defibrillator can be configured to look at characteristics of a shockable heart rhythm and advise the user to provide either an immediate defibrillation shock or CPR first, followed by a shock.
QUICK SHOCK
Research also suggests that the opportunity for survival can be improved if interruptions to CPR are minimized. The Quick Shock capability of the HeartStart FR2+ Defibrillator readies the defibrillator within seconds to deliver a shock, reducing the time between CPR and defibrillation.
