The Verdict

Physio Control LIFEPAK CR2 Features

A Simple, Streamlined Design. Clearly labeled buttons and bold diagrams make it easy for anyone to operate the AED, even with no experience. Easy-to-Follow Voice Coaching: The automated external defibrillator audibly coaches users through CPR and treatment. A built-in metronome helps the user to maintain the optimal pace for chest compressions. A Rugged Build. The CR2 boasts an IP55 rating for high resistance against dust and water penetration. CPRINSIGHT™ Analysis. This device is the first in the industry to feature cprINSIGHT™ technology, which allows chest compressions to continue during ECG analysis. This helps increase hands-on time and reduces long pauses in CPR, which can improve survival outcomes.
