The External Defibrillator market is a segment of the Medical Devices industry. It consists of devices used to treat cardiac arrhythmias, or abnormal heart rhythms, by delivering an electric shock to the heart. External Defibrillators are used in both emergency and non-emergency situations, and are typically found in hospitals, ambulances, and public places such as airports and shopping malls. External Defibrillators are typically divided into two categories: manual and automated. Manual Defibrillators require a trained operator to deliver the shock, while Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) are designed to be used by untrained personnel. AEDs are becoming increasingly popular due to their ease of use and portability. The External Defibrillator market is highly competitive, with a number of major players. Some of the leading companies in the market include Philips, Zoll Medical, Cardiac Science, Medtronic, and Stryker. Show Less Read more
