Overview

AI-generated summary, 1 Oct 2026

Written by a language model from registry data. Not verified by deviCERTS or the manufacturer. The registry data above is the record.

The Life Defense Plus is a low-energy DC defibrillator designed to deliver electrical shocks of up to 360 joules to restore normal heart rhythm or terminate cardiac arrhythmias in the atria or ventricles. Classified as a defibrillator under the FDA’s nomenclature, it combines defibrillation, monitoring, and temporary pacing capabilities in a single device. Its primary function is to provide emergency intervention for life-threatening arrhythmias by delivering controlled electrical impulses through paddles or pads. The device operates within a defined energy range, ensuring targeted intervention while minimizing risk to the patient.

This device is intended for use in clinical settings such as hospitals, emergency rooms, and pre-hospital environments where immediate cardiac intervention is required. Supplied as a reusable medical device, it requires proper calibration, maintenance, and adherence to manufacturer guidelines for safe operation. The Life Defense Plus holds FDA 510(k) clearance (K895533) under the Cardiovascular advisory committee, classified as a Class II device under regulation 870.5300. It is not sterile and must be cleaned and serviced according to regulatory and institutional protocols to ensure reliability and patient safety.
