Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) can happen to anyone at any time-without warning. And people who exercise are not immune.
In fact, a person is at slightly greater risk for experiencing sudden cardiac arrest during and shortly after vigorous exercise.¹ That's why many health clubs, fitness centers, golf courses, ski resorts, and other sports venues have installed Philips HeartStart Defibrillators.
HeartStart defibrillators are safe, easy to use and to maintain, and virtually anyone can be trained to
operate them. And they are the number oneportable defibrillator among airlines, in airports and in workplaces worldwide.²
We offer a complete defibrillation package - HeartStart Essentials - including site assessment, program management, medical direction, staff training and a range of financing options, enabling you to create an effective, manageable and affordable defibrillation solution for your business.

| "The proper screening of club clients, and a well-rehearsed emergency response plan, are both essential to a safe exercise environment. So, too, is the availability of, and the ability to use, appropriate medical equipment - principal among which is the automated external defibrillator (AED)." --Kyle McInnis, Club Business International, June 2002, p. 34. |
