Cardiac Science Inc. said on Tuesday that it has received a supplemental clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to market its pediatric defibrillation electrode pad system for its Powerheart AED (automatic emergency defibrillator), permitting the system to be used on children under eight years old.
The pediatric electrode pads are significantly smaller than the standard pads, to better fit the bodies of children. The pediatric system also is designed to decrease the energy delivered during a defibrillation shock.
