Abstract
A defibrillator is provided comprising an activation mechanism having an activator and a status indicator, wherein the activator is disposable in a first condition in which the defibrillator is deactivated and in a second condition in which the defibrillator is activated and the status indicator is operable in at least a first mode in which a ‘defibrillator ready’ status of the defibrillator is indicated and a second mode in which a ‘defibrillator not ready’ status of the defibrillator is indicated. By having an activation mechanism which includes the activator and the status indicator, users of the defibrillator are not confused between separate activation and status indication devices and are able to use the activator promptly.
