AEDs, Defibrillator Pads & Electrodes

Automated external defibrillators (AEDs) and their pads and electrodes are essential for treating sudden cardiac arrest, delivering an electric shock to help restore normal heart rhythm. This category covers the full setup: AED devices for emergency response in medical facilities, ambulances, and public safety settings, along with the disposable pads, multi-function electrodes, batteries, and mounting accessories needed to keep them ready for use.

Medicaleshop carries AEDs and accessories from trusted brands including Zoll Medical (Powerheart, OneStep, CPR-D-padz), Philips Healthcare (HeartStart), Defibtech, 3M, Cardinal Health (Medi-Trace), and Medline - with adult, pediatric, and multi-function pad options, plus replacement batteries, wall brackets, alarmed cabinets, and charging stations to support ongoing AED readiness.

What's the difference between an AED and defibrillator pads?

The AED is the device that analyzes heart rhythm and delivers the shock. Pads (also called electrodes) are the single-use adhesive components that connect the AED to the patient - most AEDs require pad replacement after use or upon expiration, typically every 2–5 years depending on the brand.

Are pediatric AED pads different from adult pads?

Yes. Pediatric pads deliver a reduced energy dose appropriate for children under about 8 years old or 55 lbs, and are not interchangeable with adult pads.
