AED, Manual Defibrillator

The Nihon Kohden cardiolife TEC-1000 Series is a professional defibrillator engineered to improve the quality of resuscitation. Designed for consistent safety, reliability, and speed, it supports emergency care professionals in delivering optimal defibrillation and improving patient outcomes in critical situations.

The cardiolife TEC-1000 provides AED, manual defibrillation, synchronized cardioversion, non-invasive pacing, and monitoring modes. Its three-step guided operation and intuitive control dial make it straightforward to use, even in high-pressure situations.

The TEC-1000 charges 150 J in less than three seconds, enabling rapid defibrillation during life-threatening cardiac events such as ventricular fibrillation. Post-shock ECG recovery occurs within three seconds, allowing immediate cardiac monitoring and prompt clinical intervention.

With Nihon Kohden’s Continuous VF/VT Analysis algorithm, rhythm assessment takes place in the background—even during chest compressions. This feature, combined with pre-charging, minimizes hands-off time and accelerates shock delivery, helping caregivers respond faster when every second matters.

Nihon Kohden’s Clear Wave Pads deliver stable ECG signals during CPR, reducing baseline drift and providing clearer waveforms for faster assessment and treatment decisions.

Effective CPR requires correct compression depth, rate, and full chest recoil. The TEC-1000 can connect to Nihon Kohden’s CPR feedback devices, displaying quality indicators on its large screen to support optimal resuscitation performance.

The large, high-contrast display allows simultaneous viewing of ECG and vital signs for a comprehensive clinical overview. Its intuitive touchscreen and user interface streamline operation and support efficient training for clinical staff.

The TEC-1000 is compatible with Nihon Kohden’s cap-ONE CO₂ sensor, enabling fast and accurate ETCO₂ measurement for tube placement confirmation, CPR quality monitoring, and early ROSC detection. The built-in Audible Cue provides instant feedback on ETCO₂ levels via distinct sounds.

Additionally, Nihon Kohden’s iNIBP technology ensures faster and more comfortable blood pressure measurement, while synECi18 synthesized 18-lead ECG helps identify right ventricular and posterior ischemia without additional electrodes.

The TEC-1000 performs daily and monthly self-checks for battery status, pad expiration, and circuit integrity, ensuring readiness for emergencies. Convenient status indicators and barcode-based pad management streamline device inspection and maintenance.

Accurate timekeeping through NTP synchronization supports precise event logging, debriefing, and device management for better clinical documentation and quality improvement.
