Hello everyone, I'm a security guy, some people say, you just need to use AED on the road and the odds of encountering a car with a portable AED are no less than winning a five-million lottery ticket, so the popular science knowledge is here - do you know what "AED" is?
Automated external defibrillators (AEDs) play a vital role in resuscitating cardiac arrest emergencies. Standards and specifications for AED devices vary globally, including international, European, and U.S. standards.
Security will delve into the differences between these three standards, including product features, materials, application scenarios, etc., aiming to help readers better understand and choose AED equipment that suits their needs.
1. Introduction.An automated external defibrillator (AED) is an emergency medical device used in cardiac arrest patients that identifies arrhythmias and automatically administers defibrillation**. The use of AEDs has become the standard in public places and medical institutions, but the standards and norms for AEDs vary in different countries and regions.
This article will focus on the three main standards: international standards, European standards, and American standardsProduct features, materials and applicable scenariosSo that readers can better understand and choose the AED equipment that suits their needs.
2. International standards.International standards are provided by the International Organization for Standardization(ISO) formulated,It aims to provide uniform technical requirements and test methods for global AED manufacturers. ISO 60601-2-4 is one of the standards for medical electrical equipmentThis includes the design and performance requirements of the AED.
1.Features::
International standard AED equipment typically has the following features:
It has the function of automatic analysis of heart rhythm and automatic defibrillation.
Clear sound and image guidance makes it easy for non-professionals to operate.
It has the function of automatically detecting the electrode sticking to ensure that the sticking is correct.
Lightweight and easy to carry, suitable for various places and emergency situations.
2.Material:
International standard AED equipment usually uses high-strength plastic housing, and the internal circuitry is made of high-quality conductive materials to ensure the durability and safety of the equipment.
3.Application Scenarios:
The international standard of AED is widely used in:
Public places such as airports, train stations, shopping malls, etc.
Medical facilities such as emergency rooms, cardiology units, etc.
Stadiums, schools, and community venues.
3. European standards.The European standard is regulated by the European Committee for Standardization (SEN).CEN)., which aims to harmonize the design and performance requirements of AED devices in European countries. European AED standards usually use CE marking. 1.Features::
European standard AED equipment usually has the following features:
Comply with the requirements of European CE safety certification.
It has a multi-language operation interface for different language environments.
It has a long-lasting battery that is able to provide long standby and use times.
Built-in data logging for cardiac monitoring and data recording.
2.Material:
European standard AED equipment usually uses high-quality plastic housing, and the internal circuit is made of high-quality conductive materials to ensure the stability and reliability of the equipment.
3.Application Scenarios:
European standard AEDs are widely used in:
Public places and medical institutions in European countries.
Public transportation such as planes, trains, etc.
Inside the enterprise and factory, as part of the first aid equipment.
Fourth, the American standard.The U.S. standard consists of:American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and American Heart Association (AHA).Jointly developed to standardize the design and use of AED devices in the United States.
1.Features::
U.S. standard AED devices typically have the following features:
Comply with the requirements of the US FDA safety certification.
Equipped with an intelligent analysis system, it can quickly identify arrhythmias and give the best recommendations.
LCD display with high definition to display ECG and operation guidance.
Provide professional training and technical support services.
2.Material:
American standard AED equipment usually uses high-strength engineering plastic housing, and the internal circuit is made of high-quality conductive materials to ensure the stability and reliability of the equipment.
3.Application Scenarios:
American standard AEDs are widely used in:
Public places across the United States, including shopping malls, schools, gymnasiums, and more.
Medical facilities such as emergency rooms, cardiology units, etc.
Emergency rescue vehicles and fire fighting vehicles as part of the first aid equipment.
V. Conclusions.The three main AED standards (international, European and American) have certain differences in product characteristics, materials and application scenarios.
**10,000 Powder Incentive Plan When choosing AED equipment, these factors need to be considered comprehensively according to the actual needs and use environment. It is hoped that the introduction of this article can help readers better understand and choose the AED equipment that suits their needs, so as to improve the survival rate and rescue efficiency of cardiac arrest patients.
