Quick summary

This is a Stryker LIFEPAK CR2 automated external defibrillator, a portable device that shocks a patient's heart during a cardiac emergency. Most of the 59 reports describe the unit not powering up, often because a small magnet in the lid was missing, so it did not turn on automatically when the lid opened and users had to press a button underneath instead. Others mention parts detaching, failure to deliver a shock, and power or sensing problems. No deaths and no injuries were reported, and no recalls name this device.
