Physio-Control

Physio-Control has been involved in emergency medical care for more than 55 years and leads the industry in developing products that monitor or treat patients in emergency medical situations. Physio-Control develops technologies and designs devices according to the unique needs of our customers and our goal is to provide complete solutions for cardio-respiratory emergencies. Everything is designed for customers, to work with them—whether it is accessories, disposables, flexible energy dosing, or data management solutions that help them capture patient data and learn from it to improve patient care.

Physio-Control approaches product development with the values our customers expect front and center: quality, innovation, durability and reliability. We hold ourselves to rigorous quality and innovation standards, and firmly believe that good enough is never good enough when you are talking about devices used on a daily basis in a variety of emergency care environments. At Physio-Control, we are always innovating our product and clinical technologies and looking for ways to improve our processes.

Defibrillators

Our product line ranges from Automated External Defibrillators (AED) for minimally trained responders to compact, powerful defibrillators for Basic Life Support (BLS) crews to sophisticated devices for Advanced Life Suport (ALS) to the ideal hospital crash-cart device.

Consistency among our products means you can count on uniform energy doses across LIFEPAK® devices, easily share data, and minimize training costs.

CPR Assist Devices

Designed to provide effective, consistent and uninterrupted compressions according to European Resuscitation Council (ERC) guidelines, LUCAS™ Chest Compression System is used on adult patients in out-of-hospital and hospital settings. Maintaining high quality hands-free compressions frees responders to focus on other lifesaving therapies and enables them to wear seat belts during transport. Available in both air-powered and battery-powered versions.

Medical Informatics

The LIFENET® System provides Emergency Medical Services (EMS) and hospital care teams with reliable, quick access to clinical information to help improve patient care flow and operational efficiency. The LIFENET System provides customers with a reliable and secure web-based platform linking care teams with critical information for patients on scene and during transport.

From providing an advanced alert of an incoming patient and forwarding data to other care teams, to reviewing post event data, to tracking assets, the LIFENET System is the most comprehensive system on the market today.
