AED Defibrillators Save Lives

broken image

An AED defibrillator is a portable device used to shock an individual with a shock that can save a life. It uses electrodes that transmit information about the heart rhythm to a computer. A computer analyzes this information and delivers a shock when needed. The device is also used to check for arrhythmias that can prevent the heart from pumping blood properly and can even prevent a person's heart from stopping.AEDs are best used in situations where the person is not breathing or is unresponsive. AEDs should be used only in emergencies and if the patient cannot speak or breathe, EMS should be called. 

 

 

An AED's manual will explain how to use it and give you instructions for how to use it. It is important to follow the instructions carefully and check for any problems that could compromise the patient's safety.The FDA has established a premarket approval process for AEDs. This approval process requires manufacturers to submit reports about design changes, manufacturing processes, and performance. Then, the FDA posts the information on its Medical Device Recall Database. 

 

The FDA monitors the effectiveness of AED recalls. It also requires manufacturers to meet certain annual reporting requirements. The new PMA regulations make AEDs even more effective. If you're looking for an AED, don't hesitate to contact a reputable source and get the most appropriate product.An AED contains a microprocessor and an adhesive pad. It is designed to detect a person's heart rhythm and deliver a shock that restores a normal heart rhythm. This device is extremely portable and can save a person's life. AEDs have been widely used in medical settings and emergencies for years. Emergency Medical Products carries Physio Control LifePak CR Plus/Express AEDs for sale and also recertified units for emergencies.

 

The Lifeline(TM) AUTO AED is a portable device designed to shock a person's heart. It offers better value for your money than other AEDs. The Zoll M Series  is easier to carry around and requires less shock time than many competitors. However, Lifeline(TM) and Heartsine(r) have improved their quality. They both have a better price and are easier to use.

While the FDA recognizes the importance of AEDs as life-saving devices, the agency has acknowledged the problems with several AEDs, including design issues and manufacturing defects. These issues can prevent timely rescue or prevent further patient harm. For these reasons, manufacturers are required to file a premarket approval application (PMA) with the FDA. In some cases, premarket approval is required by law. Check out this related post to get more enlightened on the topic: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implantable_cardioverter-defibrillator.
