Using A Mobile AED Machine As A Lay Person

1
Using Portable AED Unit As A Random Bystander
(Why are portable AED units so crucial?)
2
A major 1995-2005 analysis by American Heart
Association, has revealed just how crucial it is
for any lay person to make use of a portable AED
unit.
3
AHA reported that between '95 and '05, in a
randomized large scope study in the use of
tactically situated mobile automated electronic
defibrillator units, or portable AED units,
indicated that Heart Attack Deaths will be
effectively avoided by lay folks, or bystanders,
acting on time.

The lay people seeing the heart attack need to
execute 4 steps, a 'chain of survival'
5
1) Call 911 and request Urgent Medical Services,
EMS.
6
2) The CPR, cardio pulmonary resuscitation,
carried out by a bystander.
7
3) Quick delivery of a shock from a portable AED
unit, quite possibly by bystanders. CPR carries
on after shock.
8
4) Quick advanced life support by now-arrived EMS.
9
It always takes between 8 and 10 min. in most
locations inside the US for the EMS to arrive.
10
Given that the likelihood of surviving falls by
10 percentage points each passing minute, it is
crucial for any bystander to administer a
sequence of CPR and AED action prior to the EMS
turning up.
