Philips Tempus LS – Manual Defibrillator

Give Your Community the Power to Save a Life.

The Philips LS Manual Defibrillator is a versatile and reliable tool for emergency medical services, critical care transport, and hospital settings. This durable, portable device combines multiple life-saving functions, including advanced manual defibrillation and synchronized cardioversion, which delivers an electrical shock in sync with the heart's rhythm. It also features pacing capabilities to stimulate a patient's heart to beat at a regular rate.

A key feature is its integrated 3/5-lead ECG monitoring, which provides a clear, real-time view of a patient's cardiac rhythm. The defibrillator also offers real-time CPR feedback to guide rescuers in performing compressions at the correct rate and depth, which improves the quality of resuscitation. With its rugged design and long-lasting battery, the Philips LS is an essential piece of equipment for any professional focused on saving lives in demanding environments.

Tempus LS Defibrillator (Part Number 00-3010)

The Tempus LS defibrillator is a portable, multi-functional medical device designed for a wide range of cardiac emergencies. It is used to treat life-threatening heart rhythm disorders like ventricular fibrillation (VF) and ventricular tachycardia (VT) through both AED (Automated External Defibrillation) and manual modes.

In addition to defibrillation, the Tempus LS features a Cardioversion mode to convert abnormally fast heart rates and other cardiac arrhythmias back to a normal rhythm. Its pacemaker module offers two operation modes—"Fixed" or "Demand"—to stimulate the heart and maintain a regular beat. For enhanced patient care, an optional CPR assistance feature is available with the LifePoint sensor, which provides feedback to help rescuers perform effective cardiopulmonary resuscitation. This device can be used as a standalone defibrillator or as part of the larger Tempus ALS system, working with the Tempus Pro monitor to provide a comprehensive and integrated solution for prehospital and critical care environments.

Therapeutic Indications

The Tempus LS is a versatile tool with specific therapeutic applications:

• Manual Defibrillation: Indicated for pulseless, unconscious, and non-breathing patients experiencing VF or VT.
• AED: Indicated for VF and rapid/fine VT.
• Cardioversion: Indicated for conditions such as atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, and, in relatively stable patients, ventricular tachycardia.
• Pacing: Used for patients with symptomatic bradycardia, with an "overdrive" option available in the fixed mode.

User and Environment

The Tempus LS is intended for use by qualified medical personnel who are trained in basic and advanced life support, including doctors, nurses, paramedics, and EMTs in both civilian and military applications. The device can also be used by paramedics with less clinical experience who may only require the AED mode, a feature programmable by a system administrator.

This device is designed for use in various environments, including:

• Pre-hospital and transport applications: Ambulances, aircraft, patient homes, and austere outdoor settings.
• Medical establishments: Hospital emergency rooms, crash carts, military hospitals, and doctors' clinics.
