AED | Automated External Defibrillator

Cardiac Life™ is one of the largest distributors of FDA approved public access Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs). An AED is a medical device that automatically or semi-automatically delivers an electrical shock to the patient's heart. We offer the best prices available for all AED brands for public places.

Ventricular Tachycardia and Ventricular Fibrillation are responsible for most Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) deaths in the United States. SCA is different from a heart attack. Unlike a heart attack, when a person suffers from SCA their heart has stopped beating. With the combination of early defibrillation from an AED and chest compressions from Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR), an SCA victim's chance of survival increases by 66.5%.

Once the AED electrodes are connected to the patient's chest the AED (depending on the brand) automatically analyzes the heart rhythm and determines whether or not a shock is advised. The AED then works to deliver the shock to the patient's heart. Using a public access defibrillator will give a patient a second chance at life while waiting for emergency medical personnel to arrive.
