No – it’s imperative to source pads compatible with the make and model of the defibrillator you are using. If you have a Defibtech defibrillator, it is crucial only to source genuine pads for optimal performance.
We recommend the purchase of paediatric pads in environments frequented by children under the age of 8, such as schools, sports centres, play areas and entertainment venues. You may also wish to purchase a set of paediatric pads if you welcome children on your premises, even on an infrequent basis.
Our paediatric pads are compatible with each of the AEDs stocked, so you should check your device’s manual to find out which pads will work best for it.
Paediatric pads are designed for single use, so they must be replaced after each rescue. Unused paediatric pads have a shelf-life of 24 months from the date of manufacture. If you have any further questions about paediatric pads or any other Defibtech products, please get in touch with our team and we’ll be happy to help.
