This is an important question to ask yourself as certain Automated External Defibrillator (AED) brands are no longer being supported and are approaching their end-of-life cycle. With this being said, replacement pads, batteries, and parts may no longer be available. To make sure that you are always in compliance with all of the federal, state, and local requirements for Good Samaritan protection, it is extremely prominent to maintain your current AED(s) by replacing the pads and batteries when they expire.
Please note that the following models are reaching their “end-of-life” cycle or are no longer being supported:
WELCH ALLYN
- This device was bought out by Zoll Medical Corporation.
- Effective 2014, Zoll will no longer support Welch Allyn AED units and batteries/pads/parts will no longer be provided.
PHYSIO-CONTROL CR PLUS
- This device has an internal battery that lasts 8-years and cannot be replaced.
- Once the battery reaches its’ 8-year mark, the entire AED unit needs to be replaced.
PHYSIO-CONTROL LIFEPAK 500
- This device is no longer being supported with tech support, repair, or parts.
