Can I carry a defibrillator in my (hand) luggage? - Little Boy Carrying Can

I'm currently living in UK and I'll be travelling to Turkey soon. I bought an automatic defibrillator for my family, and I wonder whether I can carry it in my hand luggage or checked baggage?

Thanks!

P.S. In case it matters, I'll be flying from Edinburgh to London, London to Istanbul, Istanbul to another city in Turkey.
