CellAED® is a class IIb medical device.

CellAED® weighs approximately 300 grams (450 grams including the protective case). 

The dimensions of CellAED® are L 19.6cm x W 9.3cm x D 1.7cm and including the protective case the dimensions are L 20.8cm x W 11.3 cm x D 2.8cm. 

CellAED® has a non-rechargeable lithium battery. 

Voltage: 12 Volts

Lithium content: less than 2 grams 
Battery Energy: less than 20 Watt-hours 

Your CellAED® has a flashing LED on the front labelled 'status'. 

A flashing GREEN LED (every 30 seconds) indicates that the device is fully operational and ready to use. 

A flashing AMBER LED (every 30 seconds) indicates that the battery is low, and the device should be replaced immediately. Until replacement arrives, your CellAED ® should still be used in an emergency. 

NO LED indicates that the battery has expired, and the device must be replaced immediately. 

Please note, your LED may continue to flash green after you CellAED® has expired. The product expiry takes into consideration all internal components, including the battery and the gel on the electrode pads. It is important to note, that after your CellAED® had expired, your product will no longer work as intended, irrespective of a GREEN or AMBER LED. 

Your expiry date located on the back of the protective case. 

CellAED® has an IP 22 rating, which means it has been tested and complies with the international safety standards for the safety of portable medical equipment intended for use in the home, acknowledging CellAED® may be transported outside for use. 

This rating guarantees CellAED® is prevented from ingress of materials such as pushing a pen in, or small fingers, and liquids as expected from spillages or rainfall. An IP 55 and IP 56 rating provides protection against fine dust and pressurised water jets. 

CellAED® achieves IP 22 in its most vulnerable state, i.e., when removed from its protective packaging during its intended use. When not in use, CellAED® is in a protective case and the thoroughly sealed transparent bag that is airtight, which offers additional protection. 

Designed to be easy to SNAP by the average person, the amount of torque required to SNAP the CellAED® is approximately 1.5 NM or 15 N of force, taking into consideration how the device is intended to be held and used. 

No. Your CellAED® comes with a non-rechargeable battery and will arrive pre-charged. The front face of your CellAED® will inform you of the battery status.

Check your CellAED® protective case is in good condition. DO NOT open the protective case to do this, simply look through the clear protective case. 

Check the tape around the case has not been opened (e.g., the tamper evident seal is not broken). The transparent barrier bag is sealed without rips or tears. 

Check the battery status by looking at the colour of the LED periodically flashing on the front of your CellAED®. 

Being a CellAED for lifeTM Member offers the benefit of receiving monthly updates on the battery status and temperature condition of your CellAED®. These updates occur if your CellAED® is within 2G/3G network range, depending on which country you are in. 

If a cellular network is unavailable due to service outages or your CellAED® is in an area with no or low signal, your device will not be able to communicate. In Australia, network providers are progressively switching off the 3G network with this expected to be fully switched off by September 2024, after which, your CellAED® will no longer communicate data updates. In other countries, such as NZ and the UK, support for 2G/3G networks will remain for longer. 

Please note, a cellular network connection is not required for your CellAED® to function as a life- saving defibrillator.

CellAED® is compatible with the local cellular networks within Australia and the frequency bands used in other approved regions for sale. CellAED® has been tested for cellular compatibility just like your mobile phone. 

Network technologies, however, can change as telecommunication companies evolve their infrastructure. We work closely with our carriers and telecommunication partners to ensure the best possible coverage and service. 

Depending on which country you are in, CellAED® communicates via 2G or 3G cellular networks. 

Check with your local telecommunication company for further information on which cellular networks are available. 

Your CellAED® has an in-built cellular modem which connects to a direct point-to-point connection from your device to the manufacturer over an encrypted connection to provide device status information. This information includes status summary of your CellAED® temperature, battery condition, serial number, and internal information such as firmware version and cellular network info. This is shared back with our CellAED for lifeTM customers as a benefit of their membership. 

Monitoring features available for CellAED for lifeTM customers are subject to cellular connection availability. Australia is progressively switching off 3G cellular coverage with full shutdown expected by Sep 2024. 

No, your CellAED® does not use GPS functionality. 

No, your CellAED® does not have any audio recording hardware. It doesn’t have the ability to record audio. 

CellAED® has been designed to make all the decisions for you after you SNAP your CellAED®, which will start voice instructions. CellAED® will tell you what to do every step of the way and when the pads are applied to the person’s bare chest, CellAED® immediately begins analysing the heart rhythm and will only deliver a shock if a heart rhythm associated with sudden cardiac arrest is detected. So, don’t hesitate to use your CellAED® on a person who’s unconscious and not breathing or not breathing normally. 

Yes, CellAED® can be used on a person with a pacemaker. A pacemaker is usually located just under the skin below the collarbone on the upper left side of the chest and will therefore not interfere with CellAED® pad placement. However, sometimes for medical reasons the pacemaker may need to be located on the right side of the body just under the collarbone. If this is the case, please stick the pad below this area. AVOID PLACING THE PADS DIRECTLY ON TOP OF THE PACEMAKER. 

No, CellAED® doesn't need a prescription. 

When someone experiences a sudden cardiac arrest they will drop suddenly and immediately fall unconscious. They won’t be able to apply a defibrillator on themself. 

If you live alone, you and your visitors can still have peace of mind and be prepared with a CellAED® in the house. CellAED® is also ultraportable and you can easily take it with you! 

No, CellAED® requires hands to remain off the patient whilst analysing the heart rhythm. 

CellAED® is designed so you as the user don’t have to make decisions about whether the patient has a normal heart rhythm or not. It’s a fully-automatic AED (automated external defibrillator), meaning the user simply follows the voice instructions of your CellAED®. 

CellAED® analyses the heart rhythm at the end of the CPR cycle and will only deliver a shock if there is a shockable rhythm present (ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia). If there’s not a shockable rhythm present, your CellAED® will always advise to start CPR (which is vital to continue to deliver oxygenated blood around the body). 

Ultimately if the patient wakes up, they are most likely to display signs such as verbal or physical movement to let you know CPR is uncomfortable and to stop. 

We recommend CellAED® should remain on the patient until instructed to remove from a trained medical professional. 

CellAED® is designed for use in a single sudden cardiac event and is pre-programmed to operate up to 20 defibrillation cycles (approximately 45 minutes of operation time) 

The revolutionary and patented technology of CellAED® uses up to 85 joules, which is significantly less energy to deliver an equivalent shock of a traditional AED. 

By redesigning how AEDs use energy to deliver a shock, CellAED® is a personal AED that uses less energy (joules) to deliver a shock (current) that is equivalent to that of conventional AEDs.
 Biphasic defibrillators work by delivering current in two phases, each with a different direction of current flow between the electrode pads for a specific time interval. 

Most conventional biphasic defibrillators store their energy within a single high voltage capacitor, which delivers an uneven (70/30) waveform across these phases. This requires higher total energy (typically 120 – 150 joules) to ensure phase 2 remains powerful enough to complete defibrillation. 

In contrast, CellAED® uses multiple capacitors, enabling each phase of the waveform to have independent energy storage, delivering a balanced 50/50 dual waveform across both phases. For this reason, CellAED® requires fewer joules (approximatley75 joules) to ensure phase 2 remains powerful enough to deliver an effective shock. 

Comparing different AEDs based on their energy usage (joules) is not a comparison of the effectiveness of their therapy. This is because the shape and the duration of the waveform can differ between AEDs, and even AEDs of the same energy. 

The most critical factor in determining shock effectiveness is the electrical current that flows through the heart. It is current, not energy that determines effective defibrillation. 

CellAED® is a fully automatic AED (automated external defibrillator) which does not require you to push any buttons to deliver a shock. 

It's easy to use in 3 easy steps: Snap...Peel...Stick® 

CellAED® is powered on by snapping in half along the perforated centre line. This will automatically start the voice instructions, guiding you every step of the way through the CPR and defibrillation cycle. 

Yes, CellAED® has an infant button located on the front of the device for use on infants weighing less than 10 kg (22lb). When this button is pressed, the voice instructions will start and guide you step-by- step. 

For infants weighing less than 10kgs, remove the CellAED® pad on the front of the chest and use two fingers over the centre of the chest when instructed to do so by the voice instructions on the device. Push down to a depth of no more than one third of the infant's chest cavity to the rhythm of the beeps on the CellAED®. 

CellAED® will reduce its output therapy when placed in infant mode. The voice instructions will tell you when it’s the right time to press the infant button. The therapy provided by your CellAED® will vary slightly due to patient differences, such as the size of the patient’s chest. 

When your CellAED® has been snapped, applied to a patient, and recognised a shockable rhythm, your CellAED® will start charging and deliver a life-saving shock within the next 30 seconds. Voice instructions will instruct you to not touch the patient and stand clear for shock. 

CellAED® can be used on someone experiencing cardiac arrest who has a history of atrial fibrillation in the past. Once CellAED® is on the patient’s bare chest it carries out a heart rhythm analysis to determine if a shockable heart rhythm is present. CellAED® is designed to only deliver a shock if it detects either ventricular fibrillation (VF) or ventricular tachycardia (VT). 

As you’re probably aware, optimal pad placement receives a lot of discussion within the resuscitation community and the most recent update from the European Resuscitation Council (ERC) guidelines for advanced life support (Soar et al., 2021) state “there is no new evidence since the 2015 guidelines regarding optimal defibrillation pad position” and that “no human studies have evaluated pad position as a determinant of ROSC or survival from VF/pVT.” 

For infants weighing less than 10kgs, remove the CellAED® pad on the front of the chest and use two fingers over the centre of the chest when instructed to do so by the voice instructions on the device. Push down to a depth of no more than one third of the infant's chest cavity to the rhythm of the beeps on the CellAED®. 

Rapid Response Revival, the manufacture, continue to support organisations such as Ambulance Victoria and St John New Zealand, with a view to supplementing the formal body of research to improve the survival rate of OHCA. 

CellAED® is a personal AED. So, treat it like your wallet, keys, mobile phone. Take it with you. It’s important to keep your CellAED® within the recommended storage temperature range of 15o to 35oC (59o to 55oF). This will maximise the performance of the components inside your CellAED® including battery and the gel on the electrode pads. If you leave your CellAED® in low or high temperature conditions for an extended time, your CellAED® will not function as intended for the duration of its shelf- life. 

CellAED® undergoes rigorous Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) testing to ensure that it will operate safely and effectively in the environments and scenarios in which CellAED® was designed to be used in home and office environments. 

If you’re intending to store or use your CellAED® in other situations that may pose extreme conditions, it’s important that you let us know so we can provide an assessment. 

CellAED® should be stored between 15°C - 35°C (59°F - 95°F). This is the optimal temperature range to ensure your CellAED® will function as intended. 

Yes, your CellAED® can be taken with you on a plane and must be taken as part of your carry-on luggage.
