Philips HeartStart AED Pads & Accessories

When a HeartStart defibrillator is called on, the pads have to be ready — fully connected, in date, and correct for the patient in front of you. This collection covers the genuine Philips HeartStart replacement pads and cartridges that keep your AED rescue-ready, whether it lives in a workplace cabinet, a school, a clinic, or a first-responder kit.

The pads matter as much as the device. The Philips HeartStart FRx SMART Pads II (989803139261) ship preconnected, so there's no fumbling under pressure, and they work for both adults and children — pediatric use is enabled through the FRx Infant/Child Key rather than a second set of pads. For older units, the Adult Replacement Defibrillator Pads Cartridge fits the HeartStart HS1 family, including model numbers M5066A, M5067A, M5068A, and M5071A. Matching your cartridge to your device model is the single most important thing to check before you order.

A common question buyers ask: how often do these need replacing? Philips HeartStart pads carry an expiration date — typically around two years from manufacture — and should be swapped before that date or immediately after any use. Because the FRx SMART Pads II come preconnected, they double as your spare set so the AED is never out of service while you restock.

Need the pads on their own? See the dedicated Philips FRx SMART Pads II page. You can also browse the full range of Philips medical products, or explore related defibrillation supplies under Philips Heartstream.

Stocking genuine Philips consumables protects your warranty and, more importantly, ensures the device delivers therapy exactly as engineered. Keep a set on the shelf, log the expiration dates, and your HeartStart stays ready for the moment it counts.
