The LIFE® SoftPac™ is a portable companion oxygen unit designed to supplement AED resuscitation efforts. Delivering either 6 LPM or 12 LPM via a simple knob, it provides emergency O2 to breathing victims pre-fibrillation, oxygen-enriched CPR to non-breathing patients, and supplemental oxygen post-defibrillation. At 6 lb with dimensions of 4.5 in × 7.5 in × 15 in, it includes a shoulder strap, wall mount hook, and constant-reading supply gauge.

Product Overview
The AHA strongly recommends supplemental oxygen delivery as a component of cardiac arrest resuscitation — yet most public-access AED programs deploy only the defibrillator without a companion oxygen source. The LIFE SoftPac bridges this gap, providing a purpose-built portable O2 unit sized to co-locate with any AED and deploy in the same rapid response sequence. A simple knob selects between 6 LPM (FDA-required minimum) and 12 LPM (AHA-recommended high-flow), eliminating the confusion of complex flow regulator adjustments during a resuscitation emergency.
Three clinical use scenarios make the SoftPac valuable across the full cardiac event spectrum: supplemental oxygen for a breathing victim who shows early signs of cardiac compromise before arrest occurs; oxygen-enriched CPR through mask delivery to a non-breathing victim during the resuscitation cycle; and continued supplemental oxygen post-defibrillation when the patient has return of spontaneous circulation but requires O2 support pending EMS arrival. All three phases can be served by a single unit without swapping equipment.
The constant-reading supply gauge is readable through a window on the unit without activating it — a practical feature for monthly compliance checks in AED programs. Most portable O2 units require activation to check supply, risking inadvertent cylinder depletion during routine inspections. The wall mount hook allows co-location with wall-mounted AED cabinets; the shoulder strap and 6 lb weight support portable deployment in bags and mobile safety kits.
