DESCRIPTION:
Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) occurs when the lower chambers
of the heart (the ventricles) suddenly stop beating normally and
develop what is called ventricular fibrillation (VF). VF is a chaotic
heart rhythm where the heart muscle begins quivering which prevents
the heart from effectively pumping blood. If this condition is not
corrected immediately; death will follow within 5 to 10 minutes.
A defibrillator is the only known device/technique that stops the
chaotic electrical heart activity and allows the heart to re-pace
itself to a normal rhythm.
Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) now bring defibrillator
technology to the masses and allow immediate access.
The Zoll AED Plus is simple enough to be used by anyone. It incorporates
a sequence of visual and voice prompts to help rescuers follow established
protocols for use of AEDs.
Although reliable and durable enough for all the fire fighters
and EMS who use it, it's easy enough for a 9 year old to operate.
Dr. Steven Miller, MD of Harvard Medical School votes Zoll AED
Plus easiest AED to use for lay rescuers...
Zoll's AED is the most water resistant AED available. Think about
Rescuer safety..
Zoll AED Plus - The Only
AED that Guides You All the Way
What good is an AED if it only guides you half the time?
Only half of Cardiac Arrest victims need to be shocked. The other
half only require (CPR) Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation. So what
happens if the rescuer isn't trained in CPR?
The fact is, you need an AED (Automated External Defibrillator)
that will guide the user through the defibrillation, as well as
the CPR process.
Zoll AED Plus features Real CPR Help, a tool that is able to actually
see what you are doing and provide feedback to help you do it well.
Audio and Visual prompts help makes the rescue process easier than
any other automated external defibrillator (AED).
The Zoll CPR-D Padz gives the user complete guidance:
Not pushing hard enough? It will tell you when to push harder
Pushing hard enough? It will say "Good Compressions"
Not pushing fast enough? A metronome will lead you to the right
rate
Visual Prompts even show you the depth of compression in real time
Not yet started? The AED Plus will tell you again to get started
Compressions stopped? It will tell you to continue
The Zoll AED Plus also has one of the most inexpensive batteries
on the AED market. Using Duracell batteries, there's no need to
purchase high cost battery packs for this unit!
