AEDs & AED Accessories
According to the National Institute of Health (NIH), the survival rate is nearly doubled when an AED (automated external defibrillator) is used to treat someone in cardiac arrest. AEDs are easy to use and do not require formal training to operate. Finally, using an AED saves time that might be lost waiting for EMTs to respond to a cardiac event.
