Poorly maintained AEDs are putting lives at risk
Recent findings highlight a concerning issue in the AED market: inadequate maintenance practices leading to the unsustainable operation of existing AED programs. The outcome? AEDs that are either non-operational, inaccessible, or simply absent when crucially needed to save a life.
A prominent article by BBC News reported various charities warning that poorly maintained publicly accessible defibrillators are risking victim’s lives. Despite appearing ready for use, some registered devices were found to be unavailable. The British Heart Foundation (BHF) and Heart 2 Heart Norfolk are concerned about access issues and call for regular inspections and updated contact details. Defibrillators, vital during cardiac arrest alongside CPR, give an electric charge to restore a normal heartbeat.
Over 86,000 devices are on the BHF’s network, ‘The Circuit’, aiding ambulance services in emergencies. Instances like Raymond Marsh’s, unable to access a defibrillator due to outdated codes on locked AED cabinets, highlight the urgency for maintenance and awareness. The BHF stresses the need for 24/7 accessible defibrillators and emphasises ambulance services’ role in directing people to the nearest available device (source: BBC News).
For years, the predominant focus has been on price efficiency, with both buyers and sellers of AEDs primarily concentrating on short-term gains. The emphasis was on distributing AEDs without considering their long-term availability and operational readiness. As a result of insufficient information regarding the ongoing commitment and associated costs, many AEDs are now inaccessible in various locations.
Get Ready and Set To Rescue
From trained medical personnel to any bystander willing to assist during a sudden cardiac arrest, anyone can be a lifesaver with an available, operational, and accessible AED.
Numerous AEDs face challenges such as restricted accessibility, delayed user response, and insufficient maintenance as previously mentioned. Rotaid 24/7 effectively addresses and resolves all of these issues which is why we highly recommend it as the Ultimate Unlocked AED Cabinet of choice you can have installed.
