We are postponing all in-person courses until further notice due to COVID-19. We want to do our part to help slow the spread of this virus, and are unable to carry on in-person first aid or Foodsafe courses while maintaining social distancing. We are looking into alternative delivery methods, and will resume courses as soon as it is safe to do so.

With the healthcare workers putting their lives at risk and the shortage that is sure to come, our incoming masks will now be reserved for health organizations that need them. We are reaching out and working alongside them to ensure they have the protection they need. If this is you, you can see what we have available here – let us know how we can help.

Philips is the AED industry's innovator, ranked as one of the world's most innovative companies by BusinessWeek. Philips leads the AED industry in number of patents.

And in an unprecedented move, we took our most precious patent, defibrillation of infants and children, and gave it away to our competitors. Because Philips believes a child's life should not depend on the luck of the AED brand that arrives at their side.

Here are some of the defibrillator innovations Philips introduced :

  • An AED user interface optimized for laypeople, which truly opened the door to the public access defibrillation movement
  • Biphasic AED
  • Defibrillation of infants and children
  • High-peak current/low energy therapy; highly potent, yet gentle to a fragile heart.
  • Over-the-counter purchase
  • CPR coaching
  • Compensation for body resistance when delivering a shock
  • AEDs on airlines
  • Elimination of pulse check
  • Shock < 8 seconds (typical) after CPR for better shock success
  • SMART CPR for more refined advice on whether to shock first or perform CPR first, according to guidelines
