AEDGRANT.COM
AEDGrant.com is a program that grants for funding Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs). It is a corporate buy-down grant program funded by generous donations, corporate backing, and AED manufacturer sponsors.
The concept behind AED Grant is that AED Manufacturers are interested in increasing their market share by placing as many of these critical lifesaving devices in as many locations as possible, the training organizations are also interested in making AED devices readily available to organizations and the general public, because this provides that many more opportunities for them to provide training in AED use, CPR, and other vital lifesaving skills.
How does an AED Work
An AED is an electronic devise, usually portable, that analyzes and treats cardiac arrest by reestablishing a regular heart rhythm. It applies an electric shock to your heart muscle, allowing the rhythm of the heart to resynchronize.
An AED is called external because the operator applies the electrode pads to the bare chest of the victim.
Once the pads are attached to the victims chest, the AED analyzes the heart rhythm and determines if a shock is needed to treat fibrillation. If the device decides that a shock is necessary, it will charge and prepare to deliver the shock. When charged, the device tells the user to ensure no one is in physical contact with the victim and then to press the “shock” button. After the shock is delivered, the device begins to monitor the heart rhythm again, to determine if another shock is necessary.
