Does
Your Facility Need AEDs?
Automated
External Defibrillators will soon be as common as fire extinguishers, you have
a fire extinguisher at work, why not an Automated External Defibrillator
WHY AEDS
ARE NEEDED IN PUBLIC FACILITIES.
Someone goes into sudden cardiac arrest every two minutes in the United States.
In cardiac arrest, the heart's rhythm becomes erratic and the heart can't pump
oxygenated blood to the brain or other vital organs. The victim collapses. Unless
a normal rhythm is restored almost immediately, death is practically inevitable,
Automated External Defibrillators (AED), a compact, portable battery operated
version of the kind used in hospitals, can now be used to deliver measured shocks
to reestablish the heart's normal rhythm. Portable defibrillators have been
in use the past twenty years but were restricted to "first responders"
emergency medical technicians, police or fire departments. The new AED's moderate
price and simple operation make them suitable for public places. A growing number
of building safety officers, security guards, flight attendants and other non-medical
personnel are trained to use the AED's. According to the American Heart Association
(AHA), making AED's standard equipment in stadiums, airports, office buildings,
shopping malls and other public places, could save more than 50,000 lives a
year.
WHO CAN
USE AED?
AEDs are being used by police, firefighters, security officers, athletic trainers,
flight attendants and lifeguards in the U.S. and around the world. The devices
are designed to be used by anyone who has completed a short (usually about four
hours) training course that covers both AED use and cardiopulmonary resuscitation
(CPR). More than 40 states currently provide "Good Samaritan" immunity
for AED users who have completed the required training.
HOW SAFE
ARE AEDs?
AEDs are very accurate and will not shock someone who is not in cardiac arrest.
When used properly and with appropriate precautions, AEDs pose no risk to either
the rescuer or the patient.
