Schiller Defibrillators & AEDs

Schiller is a renowned manufacturer of medical devices, specialising in defibrillators and AEDs (Automated External Defibrillators) for first responders. The company is known for its innovative technology in the field of emergency care and resuscitation.

Schiller Defisign AEDs

The Schiller Defisign Life Fully Automatic Defibrillator and the Schiller Defisign Life Semi-Automatic Defibrillator share many common features but differ primarily in how they deliver the shock during a cardiac emergency.

Common Features of Defisign AEDs

User-Friendly Design

Both models are designed for use by non-professionals and provide clear verbal instructions to guide the rescuer through the resuscitation process.
They start working as soon as the front cover is opened, and provide step-by-step instructions supported by LED lights.

Electrodes and Battery

The electrodes are pre-connected and ready to use, which saves valuable time during an emergency.
The electrodes have a lifespan of approximately 2 to 3 years, and the battery has a lifespan of about 6 years.

Durability and Warranty

Both defibrillators have a high resistance to dust and water contamination, with an IP55 rating, making them suitable for various environments.
They come with a long 10-year warranty, ensuring reliability and longevity.

Multilingual Capability

Both models can store three interchangeable languages, typically including English, Polish, and German, and can switch languages even during the resuscitation process.

Child Mode

Special pediatric electrodes can be used for child casualties, which adjust the energy level of the shock to a safer level for children.

While both the Defisign Life Fully Automatic and Semi-Automatic Defibrillators offer user-friendly, durable, and reliable features, the main difference lies in the method of shock delivery.

Fully Automatic vs. Semi-Automatic

The main difference between the two models lies in how the shock is delivered:

Fully Automatic: This version administers the shock automatically when needed, without requiring the user to press a button.
Semi-Automatic: This version requires the user to press a button to deliver the shock when prompted by the device.

Both versions are designed for use by non-professionals and provide clear verbal instructions to guide the rescuer through each step of the resuscitation process.

The choice between fully automatic and semi-automatic often depends on the intended users and specific requirements of the location where the AED will be deployed.

Additional Benefits:

Competitive pricing, making it one of the more affordable AED options in the UK.
Ability to recognise connected electrodes (adult or children) and adjust defibrillation energy accordingly.
RFID tag in the electrode connector for checking electrode shelf life.
Information on chest compression frequency using impedance variation acquired through defibrillation pads.

In summary, the Defisign Life AED, available in both fully automatic and semi-automatic versions, offers a comprehensive and user-friendly solution for cardiac emergencies.

With its long warranty, multi-lingual capability, and advanced features, it is suitable for a wide range of environments and users, from businesses to public spaces.
