According to an article by Koninklijke Philips N.V., around five people in South Africa suffer from heart attacks every hour, which contributes to around 17.3 million deaths annually and is expected to grow by around 36% by 2030. This has created a huge demand for defibrillators in the country.

The country's demand and supply gap for these devices is very high due to economic and social constraints. The defibrillator market in South Africa was limited to hospital and prehospital services. It may be a developing market for PADs. Supportive initiatives undertaken by the government, various healthcare agencies, and private players are increasing awareness among people.

For instance, in March 2019, Heart and Stroke Foundation South Africa (HSFSA), The Philips Foundation, and Philips South Africa Commercial (Pty) Limited collaborated to launch the Back to Rhythm program. The program was an education campaign meant to create awareness around cardiac health.
