AED Plus Automated External Defibrillator: AEDs in Schools

Is your school prepared if sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) strikes a student, staff member or visitor?

By having trained responders and ZOLL's AEDs onsite, you will be better equipped in the event that SCA affects a member of your school's community.

Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) strikes people of all ages and fitness levels, usually without warning. Many more lives can be saved if trained bystanders act promptly and phone 911, begin cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and provide defibrillation within minutes. The 2005 American Heart Association (AHA) Guidelines stresses the importance of high-quality CPR and the availability of an AED to help improve outcomes in a cardiac arrest. The AHA recognizes the significance of CPR chest compressions and their direct ability to increase the likelihood of a successful shock.

Real CPR Help® technology in our AEDs helps impact the quality of CPR by providing real-time feedback for rate and depth of chest compressions. ZOLL has two options for AEDs; the AED Plus®, a full-rescue AED for infrequent rescuers and the AED Pro®, a rugged AED for professional rescuers. Both provide complete assistance to the rescuer in a sudden cardiac arrest emergency.

AEDs at School Athletic Events

In recent years AEDs have become commonplace on athletic fields, in gymnasiums and as standard school emergency medical equipment, helping to save many lives across the country. With more exposure to sudden cardiac arrest, schools are taking the initiative to be prepared in an emergency. Though, it's not only the schools who have stepped up to the plate.
