First Aid for Life. Basia Klimas 18 Oct I attended a 3 hour emergency First Aid course extremely well delivered by Jenny. She covered so many topics and She was also able to stimulate and answer several questions from the group around and on a tangent to the topic. I feel much more confident now.

Louise Sutherland 23 Jun We used First Aid for Life for some in-house First Aid training for the coaches and managers at our cricket club. A great session, thanks read more. Miranda Wilson-Stone 21 Jun Emma was an excellent trainer. She worked at a fast pace, she was clear with her explanations and ready to answer and I highly recommend first aid for life! Steve Tiso 19 Jun Several states have proposed or adopted legislation requiring the placement of AEDs in health clubs and gyms, school athletic events or settings, and other public spaces.
The state profiles include summaries of requirements for use, Good Samaritan protection, and a list of laws and legislation.
Please note that NCSL does not endorse the content of third-party resources. It directed the Federal Aviation Administration to evaluate regulations and decide on future authorized use of AEDs on passenger aircraft and in airports. In , President Clinton signed the federal Cardiac Arrest Survival Act , regarding the placement of AEDs in federal buildings and providing civil immunity for authorized users.
Grant funds were used for the purchase and placement of AEDs in public places and to train first responders in administering life-saving care, including on AED usage and cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The U. Food and Drug Administration issued several regulations on AEDs, including required premarket approval for new and existing AEDs and necessary accessories after reports of failing or malfunctioning devices.
Some issues were due to manufacturing problems, while others were due to improper maintenance such as battery failure. Providing these links does not indicate NCSL's support or endorsement of the site.
An automated external defibrillator AED is a medical device designed to analyze the heart rhythm and deliver an electric shock to victims of ventricular fibrillation to restore the heart rhythm to normal.
Ventricular fibrillation is the uncoordinated heart rhythm most often responsible for sudden cardiac arrest. Sudden cardiac arrest occurs when ventricular fibrillation takes place or when the heart stops beating altogether. Without medical attention, the victim collapses, lose consciousness, becomes unresponsive, and dies. A defibrillator is very simple to use, most devices prompt you through exactly what to do.
Basically to use, adhesive pads are applied to a bare chest, the device analyses the heart rhythm and a shock is administered if required. When purchasing a defibrillator it's important to assess the environment it's for. For example, the FRx defibrillator is well suited for vigorous activity in the elements as it can bear loads up to kg and a drop of up to 1 metre, making it well suited for workplaces such as building, construction, sporting facilities and gyms.
Defibrillators are expensive, because of the rigorous level of research and development that goes into each unit, so it's important that you speak to someone knowledgeable about the devices before purchasing one.
A defibrillator is a vital component in the chain of survival - a series of actions that when properly executed, reduce the mortality associated with sudden cardiac arrest. These actions include, early access, early CPR, early defibrillation and early advanced care. Early defibrillation is the link in the chain most likely to improve survival. When it comes to sudden cardiac arrest, a defibrillator can be the difference between life and death, so it's very important all public places have one on hand in case of an emergency.
While the Australian Resuscitation Council states having a defibrillator is good practice, there are no current regulations or guidelines around which businesses or industries should be required to have a Defibrillator. It is up to each business to assess their needs, their level of risk and make the decision. A defibrillator provides a shock that interrupts the misfiring electrical signals that occur in ventricular fibrillation otherwise known as chaotic or irregular heart beats. This shock then stops the heart momentarily, allowing it to reset and start rhythmically contracting again.
When it comes to defibrillation, energy matters more than current. In terms of shock efficacy, all biphasic waveforms are equivalent up to joules.
Not all patients convert at energy levels up to joules. This is not enough to improve survival rates.
Registration is straightforward and easy and means that emergency services can direct GoodSAM community responders to their nearest defibrillator in the event someone is suffering a cardiac arrest nearby. In most instances, it is unlikely that a baby will need an AED.
