Physio-Control to Acquire AED Manufacturer HeartSine Technologies

September 15, 2015

Redmond, Wash.-based Physio-Control has agreed to acquire automated external defibrillator manufacturer HeartSine Technologies. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

The combination will create one of the world’s largest AED solutions providers, according to Physio-Control.

The acquisition allows Physio-Control to diversify its portfolio of existing emergency medical response solutions as it adds HeartSine’s Samaritan PAD line of public access AEDs, and technologies such as CPR Advisor, that provides real-time CPR feedback.

The wide range of AED solutions will result in saving more lives with more AEDs in more places the company says. — Michael Cipriano
