Medtronic 801807-21 Instructions

Defibrillators are electronic devices that provide an electrical shock to the heart when abnormal activity is detected. They come in a wide variety of formats from surgically implanted devices to stationary machines. The Medtronic 801807-21 is a replacement battery charger for the Physio-Control Lifepak 1000 series of portable defibrillators. These portable defibrillators are generally given to patients who wish to maintain a normal pace of life, but are threatened by the possibility of heart attack. Understanding how to properly use your replacement battery charger is extremely important, as it can mean the difference between life and death.
