Overview: Automated External Defibrillation (AED) Training
We are able to offer a half-day course in Automated External Defibrillation (AED) training which conforms to the current Resuscitation Council (UK) guidelines. This device can be used to administer measured electric shocks during CPR to people in cardiac arrest and is the best way of increasing the chance of survival. The chances of successful defibrillation decline at a rate of 7-10% with each minute. Basic life support may help to sustain a shockable rhythm but is not a definitive treatment. We are also able to offer advice in purchasing the correct equipment for your organisation.

The (AED) training syllabus includes:

• Recognition and treatment of conscious/unconscious heart attack
• Demonstrate CPR and discuss the rationale for CPR
• The conditions where AED can be used and what AED does
• Be able to apply the pad in the correct position on a dummy and connect them to a machine
