Questions about the AHA/ERC 2005 Guidelines and upgrading your current AED''''s to these guidelines have come up. We have included a FAQ informational sheet that addresses some of these questions.

NOTE: Medtronic has discontinued the LifePak 500 line as of 1/26/2007. They still have many other models available. The LifePak 500 units in service will be supported by Medtronic for the next 7 years, thus existing units will not need to be considered for replacement until 2014. Medtronic does offer a trade in program so you may want to consider that if and when your units need to be replaced. We will post more information as it comes available. If you have concerns please contact your Medtronic Sales Rep.

It has been brought to our attention that Medtronic has decided to stop shipping any new AEDs in the US until they can get a situation with the FDA resolved. Please see the attached document "Medtronic Stops Shipments". We will post more info as it comes available. Please contract your Medtronic Sales Rep if you have questions or concerns.

Until the FDA is satisfied and approves regular manufacturing end users can expect lengthy delays in receiving any new AED''''s.
