UCOP Automated External Defibrillator AED Program

1. UCOP Automated External Defibrillator (AED) Program

2. Cardiovascular disease is one of the most common causes of death. Almost a third of the deaths from sudden cardiac arrest could be prevented if an AED was available for immediate use. After 10 minutes, a sudden cardiac arrest victim�s chances of survival are practically �zero� without defibrillation.Cardiovascular disease is one of the most common causes of death.

3. Automated External Defibrillator (AED) Electronic Device Diagnoses Cardiac Arrhythmias Delivers Electric Shock Stops the Arrhythmia Allows the Heart to Re-Establish an Effective Rhythm Automated External Defibrillator (AED): An automated external defibrillator (AED) is a portable electronic device that diagnoses cardiac arrhythmias of ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia in a patient after pads are attached to the chest. It is able to treat the patient by delivering a high voltage electric shock which stops the arrhythmia, allowing the heart to re-establish an effective rhythm.Automated External Defibrillator (AED): An automated external defibrillator (AED) is a portable electronic device that diagnoses cardiac arrhythmias of ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia in a patient after pads are attached to the chest.

4. �Zoll AED+Plus� Turn AED ON! Press Button Lower Right Unfold & Attach Pads to Victim�s Bare Chest Diagram Shows Placement Follow the AED Verbal Instructions Don�t Touch Patient While AED Analyzes Rhythm Stand Clear & Press Red Button (Center) to Deliver Shock if so Instructed Zoll AED+Plus: Must remove victim�s clothing to bare chest in order to apply one-piece sticky pads (chest must be dry and relatively hair-free � attached prep kit includes towelette and razor). The AED is smart � it tells you what to do and will NOT shock patient if it is inappropriate. Remember � you can�t hurt a �dead person� � so feel free to use an AED even if you are not trained (they are located in all airports, stadiums, etc.). AT UCOP, we would prefer the person administering the AED be formally trained, but if a trained person is not available�go head and use the unit.Zoll AED+Plus: Must remove victim�s clothing to bare chest in order to apply one-piece sticky pads (chest must be dry and relatively hair-free � attached prep kit includes towelette and razor).
