Abstract

An adaptable healthcare module that is coupleable to one or more defibrillator devices is disclosed. The adaptable health care module includes a healthcare coupling to assist with treatment and/or monitoring of a patient. The healthcare coupling can be active while decoupling the adaptable healthcare module from a first defibrillator device and coupling to a second defibrillator device. The coupling of the adaptable healthcare module includes a mechanical engagement, between the adaptable healthcare module and the defibrillator device, to retain the adaptable healthcare module to the defibrillator device.
