The Philips HeartStart Intrepid
monitor/defibrillator with TBI Advisory.


Providing prehospital treatment of TBI, improves patient survival rates. With Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs) up 53% since 2006,1 first responders must be ready for a new level of emergency on-scene care. Upgrading to the Philips HeartStart Intrepid with TBI Advisory helps you provide advanced monitoring capabilities and decision support tools for quick evaluation and treatment of TBIs.

An EMS system-wide program in Arizona, Excellence in Prehospital Injury Care (EPIC), found that state-of-the-art on-scene treatment doubled the survival rate among patients with severe TBI. And, survival rates were tripled for patient who received positive pressure ventilation.2

HeartStart compatible

Provides TBI guidance

Assists in the monitoring of patients who are determined to be at high risk of having suffered a TBI. The advisory provides visual guidance to help prevent the “3 H Bombs”:

 

  • Hypoxia – low blood oxygen saturation (as measured by SpO2 )
  • Hypotension – low systolic blood pressure
  • Hypocapnia (inadvertent hyperventilation-induced) -- decreased carbon dioxide in the blood (as measured by EtCO2 )

Enhances flexibility

Enhances flexibility

Use with adults, children or infants in monitor mode configured with SpO2 NBP and EtCo2. The HeartStart Intrepid displays the appropriate target limits for each TBI care parameter.

Supports workflows

Supports workflows

From the rigors of EMS to the physical demands on the ED, the HeartStart Intrepid is a two-in-one lightweight and rugged monitor/defibrillator.

The device is also simple to learn, so training time is limited. Intuitive soft keys and a navigation knob let you speed through the menu and limit manual data input.
