HP CodeMaster XL+

HP Codemaster XL+ Defibrillator and Recorder

The HP Codemaster XL+ is a high-performance defibrillator monitor that combines defibrillation, ECG monitoring, and an integrated recorder into a single, versatile unit. Designed for rapid, hands-free operation in emergencies, the system features multi-functional electrodes that enable both pacing and defibrillation using the same pads. It supports both pediatric and adult patients with built-in paddles that allow seamless slide-off between adult and pediatric settings. The easy 1-2-3 operation simplifies use, while its high-capacity battery and rapid charge capability (0 to 360 joules in under 5 seconds with battery) ensure speedy responses during critical situations. The system also stores up to 28 events in memory and features a bright 5-inch display that provides a clear overview of patient condition at a glance.
