St John Ambulance HEART Pocket Semi-automatic Defibrillator

Meet the future of emergency cardiac care. The St John Ambulance HEART Pocket AED has been designed to redefine the market, combining unparalleled portability with integrated, professional-grade features.

This ultra-compact device weighs less than 0.7kg and measures at an incredible 5.3 x 8.6 x 15cm. In comparison, this is about the same height as a permanent marker or a disposable coffee cup. It fits perfectly into a pocket and can even be stored inside of a first aid kit. Because of its portability, the HEART Pocket is recommended for first responders or medical professionals who are constantly on the move. This is instant access to life-saving defibrillation.

With respect to its build, it has a rugged IP65-rated construction. In simpler terms, the device is protected against dust and water, additionally boasting a 1.5 metre drop tolerance. Under extreme conditions, the AED will perform between -15°C and 50°C. MDR-approved, it also passes various safety standards and is certified to ISO 13485; a thoroughly tested defibrillator for the UK, as well as the EU.

For immediate use, the HEART Pocket is supplied complete with smart pads and a battery. Made for one-touch operation, it can be powered on at the press of a button. With Smart Voice Guidance to provide clear support, first responders can be guided confidently through the rescue process. The advanced algorithm itself is capable of detecting implants, including pacemakers, and the Pocket will deliver a shock in less than 8 seconds. As an alternative, a unique, market‑leading rechargeable battery is also available. It is an option for those looking to significantly reduce their long‑term operational costs, and can be purchased separately.

In terms of the cost per day, it works out to £0.41 (excluding VAT). This is based on the 8-year warranty period (including two leap years) and covers an extra set of pads, as well as a replacement battery that will be needed during that time. Please note however, that this price does not take into account the optional, rechargeable battery.
