Heart Hero Replacement Pads

Integrated cartridge with protective shell, plug and play heel to toe connector, automatic health monitoring compatibility, moisture protecting rubber gasket, alignment rails and locking red handle for error proof installation, and genuine HeartHero calibration for accurate rhythm analysis and shock delivery.

The sealed cartridge slides into the AED housing and locks via a red handle, establishing a secure heel to toe electrical connection. The AED performs daily self tests on pad integrity and alerts users if replacement is required, ensuring readiness without technical intervention.

How often should I replace the HeartHero pads?

Replace pads before their printed expiry date or immediately after use. Even if unused, adhesive and conductive gel deteriorate over time; follow manufacturer expiry guidance, typically every two to four years, and respond promptly to AED self test alerts indicating pad replacement is needed.

Are these pads compatible with all HeartHero AED models?

Yes. These genuine replacement cartridges are specifically engineered for HeartHero AED units and their cartridge slot design. They provide exact fit, connector alignment and electrical calibration, ensuring reliable communication between pads and device for correct shock delivery and automated self test reporting.

How do I know when pads need replacing?

The HeartHero AED conducts daily self tests and will display or sound an alert if pad integrity, connectivity or expiry are compromised. Additionally, visually check the cartridge for damage, torn seals or moisture. Any concern should prompt immediate replacement to maintain operational readiness.

Can non technical users replace the cartridge safely?

Absolutely. The cartridge is purpose built for simple, tool free replacement: align rails, slide into place and lock the red handle. Clear markings and the locking mechanism prevent incorrect installation, ensuring even untrained bystanders can maintain AED readiness quickly and correctly.

What happens if pads aren’t installed correctly?

If pads are improperly seated, the alignment rails and locking handle prevent full engagement; the AED will detect connectivity issues during self tests and alert the user. Never attempt to operate the device with a poorly seated cartridge. Reseat or replace immediately to ensure functionality.

How should I store spare HeartHero pads?

Keep spares in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Store sealed cartridges in original packaging until required. Check expiry dates periodically and rotate stock so older units are used first, ensuring spares remain shelf ready when needed.

Do the HeartHero replacement pads include adhesive and conductive gel?

Yes. Each cartridge contains pre applied adhesive pads with conductive gel to ensure low impedance contact with the chest. This design facilitates rapid application, optimises signal quality for rhythm analysis and effective shock delivery when defibrillation is required.
