Under what circumstances can I use the "life-saving artifact" AED?
AED (automated external Defibrillator), also known as automated external defibrillator, Automatic Defibrillator, Cardiac Defibrillator and Stupid Defibrillator, is a portable medical device, which can diagnose specific arrhythmia and give electric shock defibrillation. It is a medical instrument that can be used by non-professionals to rescue patients with sudden cardiac death, and is often praised as? Life-saving artifact

? This is a fully automatic machine, which can treat patients with sudden cardiac death to the greatest extent in an emergency before the ambulance arrives. The biggest feature of this machine is that users do not need to have a high level of ECG interpretation ability. Just turn on the instrument, follow the voice instructions, paste the electrode pads, insert the socket, and press the discharge button, and complete the automatic ECG analysis and defibrillation in three simple steps.

? AED is mainly used to treat patients with sudden cardiac death, which usually happens to young people. Relevant data show that there are nearly 6.5438+0.8 million cases of sudden death every year in China, with an average of 3 people per minute. Among them, in big cities, the success rate of rescue is less than 3%. When the patient is found to need treatment, he should call the ambulance number quickly and carry out cardiopulmonary resuscitation as soon as possible. The prime time for rescue is within 4~5 minutes. However, due to various reasons such as traffic jams, ambulances could not rush to the scene to treat patients at the first time. Faced with this situation, AED is widely used in public places in many countries, which is convenient for volunteers to carry out effective first aid equipment. ?

AED is small and portable, and its operation mode is simple. Under the guidance of the first-aid training teacher in the first-aid center, the masses will soon master AED, cardiopulmonary resuscitation and some life-saving first-aid techniques. In recent years, Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, Hangzhou and other cities in China began to promote the configuration and use of automated external defibrillator in key public places.
