Let’s Compare: LIFEPAK CR Plus vs. Modern AEDs

Still relying on a LIFEPAK CR Plus? You’re not alone—but it’s time to understand why upgrading matters. The CR Plus was once a trusted lifesaver, yet its design dates back more than 15 years, and the model was discontinued in 2019. As Health Canada and major manufacturers shift to smarter AED platforms, older units are increasingly expensive to maintain, harder to service, and no longer meet the modern expectations for readiness, connectivity, and bilingual accessibility.

Every year, more than 40,000 Canadians suffer sudden cardiac arrest, and survival rates can triple when an AED with real-time feedback and CPR guidance is used within three minutes. That’s why organizations across Ontario, BC, Alberta, Quebec, and Atlantic Canada are replacing outdated devices with ZOLL AED 3, Philips FRx, and Cardiac Science G5 units—available now from AED4Life, Canada’s #1 AED distributor.
