Each year, 350,000 people in the United States alone experience sudden cardiac arrest outside of the hospital, according to the American Heart Association. For many of these cases, defibrillators are an important line of defense, delivering life-saving shocks that restore normal heart rhythms. From first responders to nurses and doctors, countless medical professionals rely on these essential devices and the underlying high-voltage interconnect solutions that power them.
At Amphenol Alden, we specialize in developing high-quality, hybrid high-voltage with signal cable assemblies and connectors designed to meet the exacting demands of these environments — whether it’s in a hospital, an ambulance or in the field.
In this white paper, we’ll explore the intricate engineering and testing processes that go into developing the safe, reliable and innovative interconnect solutions behind life-saving defibrillators.
