PRODUCT INFORMATION

The Cardiac Science Powerheart G5 AED is the first FDA-cleared AED to combine fully automatic shock delivery, dual-language functionality, variable escalating energy (95–354J adult), and fast shock time (≤10 seconds). The STAR® biphasic waveform, optional Intellisense™ CPR feedback, IP55 water/dust resistance, and 8-year warranty make it one of the most capable and durable public-access AEDs available.

Product Overview

The Powerheart G5 represents Cardiac Science's most advanced public-access AED, earning the distinction of being the first FDA-cleared device to simultaneously offer fully automatic shock delivery, variable escalating energy, dual-language operation, and fast shock capability. For facilities serving diverse communities — airports, convention centers, sports arenas, multilingual workplaces — the G5 addresses both clinical and accessibility requirements in a single device.

The STAR® Biphasic waveform delivers variable energy from 95J to 354J in the adult range, automatically escalating between shocks if the initial delivery is unsuccessful. This contrasts with fixed-energy AEDs that repeat the same dose, which research suggests may be less effective in refractory ventricular fibrillation. The fast shock feature enables the G5 to charge and deliver a shock within 10 seconds of the end of the preceding CPR cycle — minimizing the critical no-flow interval that determines neurological outcome in cardiac arrest.

RescueCoach™ provides user-paced voice and text prompts — uniquely, the G5 does not rush through instructions at a fixed pace, but instead guides the rescuer at a comfortable speed. The optional Intellisense™ CPR Feedback device uses sensor-based monitoring to provide real-time corrective prompts on both compression rate and depth, enabling even untrained bystanders to deliver guideline-quality CPR compressions. The non-polarized pad design allows either pad to be placed on either position, eliminating confusion under stress.

Key Differentiating Features

First FDA-cleared AED combining fully automatic delivery + dual language + variable escalating energy + fast shock ≤10s
Variable Escalating Energy (95–354J adult): Customizes therapy to each patient; escalates on subsequent shocks
Dual Language Toggle: Switch language mid-rescue with one button press — no restart required
RescueCoach™ user-paced instruction: Adapts to rescuer speed; no rushing through critical steps
Intellisense™ CPR Feedback (optional): Real-time rate and depth correction for high-quality CPR
IP55 Rating: Tested to military standards for shock, vibration, dust, and water resistance
8-year AED warranty / 4-year battery guarantee

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What makes the Powerheart G5 unique compared to other AEDs on the market?

The Powerheart G5 is the first FDA-cleared AED to combine four major capabilities in a single device: fully automatic shock delivery (no button press required), dual-language functionality, variable escalating energy (95–354J adult range), and fast shock time of 10 seconds or less. No other AED in its class simultaneously offers all four of these features. It also includes optional Intellisense CPR Feedback for real-time rate and depth coaching — a feature typically found only in hospital-grade defibrillators.

What does 'variable escalating energy' mean and why does it matter?

Variable escalating energy means the G5 automatically delivers a higher energy dose on each subsequent shock if the initial defibrillation attempt is unsuccessful, rather than repeating the same energy level. The adult range spans 95J to 354J. This matters clinically because refractory ventricular fibrillation may not respond to repeated identical doses — escalating energy increases the likelihood of successful cardioversion on follow-up shocks. The STAR biphasic waveform also compensates for the patient's specific transthoracic impedance to optimize each delivery.

How does the dual-language feature work during a rescue?

A single button press toggles the G5 between English and a second language (Latin American Spanish or French Canadian depending on model configuration) at any point during the rescue — without restarting or delaying the sequence. Voice prompts and text display switch simultaneously. This capability is particularly valuable in multilingual public environments such as airports, convention centers, sports venues, and diverse urban workplaces where rescuers or bystanders may not be fluent in English.

Is the Powerheart G5 appropriate for outdoor or harsh-environment deployment?

Yes. The G5 is tested to military standards and holds an IP55 rating under IEC 60529, indicating protection against dust ingress and water jets from any direction. It operates across a temperature range of 32°F to 122°F (0°C to 50°C) and at altitudes from -1,253 ft to 15,073 ft. This makes it suitable for outdoor venues, sports facilities, construction sites, warehouses, and other environments where conventional electronics would be vulnerable to environmental degradation.

What warranty coverage comes with the Cardiac Science Powerheart G5?

The G5 carries an 8-year manufacturer warranty on the AED unit itself — one of the longest in the industry. The Intellisense battery includes a 4-year full operational replacement guarantee: if the battery fails to perform within the guarantee period, Cardiac Science replaces it at no charge. Rescue pads carry a 2-year warranty. This warranty structure significantly reduces the total cost of AED program ownership compared to devices with shorter coverage periods requiring more frequent component replacement.
