Protect the Little Ones: Pediatric AED Safety

The Philips M5072A Infant/Child SMART Pads Cartridge is the official pediatric replacement for the Philips HeartStart OnSite (M5066A), Home (M5068A), and HS1 AEDs. Unlike adult pads, this cartridge contains a built-in energy attenuator that reduces the defibrillation shock to a safe level (50 Joules) for a child’s smaller heart.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are these the correct pads for schools?
A: Yes. Most elementary schools and daycares are required to have these M5072A pediatric pads on hand for children under 8 years old.

Q: Can I use these pads on an adult?
A: No. The M5072A reduces the shock energy to 50 Joules, which is likely insufficient to save an adult. Always use the M5071A Adult Pads for patients over 8 years old.

Q: Are these compatible with the FRx AED?
A: No. The FRx model uses a specific “Infant/Child Key” instead of separate pads. These M5072A pads only fit the OnSite and Home models.
