Don't Let CPR Be Forgotten Are you aware that only one-half of cardiac arrest victims require the electrical shock or "zap" that makes for compelling drama on television? What all victims need is the much less dramatic, yet no less important, intervention of CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation). CPR is a vital skill for first responders and trained lay rescuers. Unfortunately, with all the emphasis on the shock, not all AEDs offer the much-needed guidance and assistance for administering CPR. Ten out of ten victims of sudden cardiac arrest require CPR. Only five of ten require electrical shock. **Breaking News** National Institutes of Health & American Heart Association study reveals Public Access Defibrillation DOUBLES survival of victims of cardiac arrest. Visit www.nih.gov to read more about the findings presented at the American Heart Association's Scientific sessions. The SafetyMate™ Emergency Guide SafetyMate™ closes the gap in response time by providing a fast, easy and efficient way for anyone to immediately respond to a variety of life threatening or permanently disabling medical emergencies or domestic terrorist events. Recommended by the American Red Cross, the American Heart Association and the Department of Homeland Security. More on The SafetyMate™... The Acceptance of an AED The American Heart Association approximates 250,000 victims annually; The United States Federal Government approximates 350,000 victims annually. No matter what statistics one is to review the numbers are staggering, approximately 700 to1000 people per day die and become fallen victims of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). This article will define the main underlying cause of SCA. Why it is important to have public access to AEDs. What automated external defibrillators (AEDs) are and how an AED works. Finally, this article will look at what is being done to increase the deployment of AEDs, creating heartsafe communities throughout the United States...more State Laws on Heart Attacks, Cardiac Arrest & Defibrillators Disclaimer: The descriptions of state laws provided in this memorandum are abbreviated for ease of use.

DDU-100 Lifeline AED w/ 5-yr Battery $1,245.00* Quantity: Check out DDU-110 Lifeline AED w/ 7-yr Battery $1,320.00* Quantity: Check out Mere seconds can mean the difference between life and death. So we created an eye-catching AED (Automatic External Defibrillator) that can be located instantly. One that can be carried to the patient quickly without fumbling. One that can be used with minimal steps to analyze and treat the patient's condition. From the moment someone suffers sudden cardiac arrest the inspired design features of the Lifeline AED (Automatic External Defibrillator) shave precious seconds off the defibrillation process. Seconds that save lives. For first response professionals like police, fire and EMS, the Lifeline AED (Automated External Defibrillator) is standard equipment. For schools, offices, stores, malls, factories, and public places, it's becoming as vital as the fire extinguisher. Features Brilliant Design - With its bright yellow and black coloring and attractive, sleek curves, the non- intimidating Lifeline AED (Automatic External Defibrillator) invites prominent display anywhere. Latest Technology - The biphasic defibrillation we use is extremely effective at defibrillating patients in ventricular fibrillation - the most common form of Sudden Cardiac Arrest- on the first shock. Easy To Use - The Lifeline AED (Automatic External Defibrillator) is designed for speed and simplicity. Built to the demanding standards of professional emergency personnel. Simple enough for non- medical users. Lightweight, Durable - At just 4.2 pounds a child could carry it. Plus, the Lifeline AED (Automatic External Defibrillator) meets US Military "drop and shock" specifications.
Handle This - Roomy, sure-grip rubberized handle makes it simple to pull off the wall and carry quickly to the patient.	Text, Lights and Voice Guides - A calm voice guides the responder step by step while a text display with lights shows the progress.
Pads at the Ready - The electrode pads are tucked into a back pocket ready to apply.	Big Buttons - The "Power On" and "Shock" buttons are oversized and brightly lit so even the most nervous fingers will hit their mark.

	State-of-the-Art Product Design Using state-of-the-art engineering techniques and computer automated design (CAD) tools. Defibtech engineers put best-in-class features on a unit that can be mass produced without compromising quality or reliability.
	Fully Automated Circuit Board Construction The Defibtech Lifeline is manufactured using the most modern automated production and testing equipment available. This ensures that the devices are produced exactly the same way every time, reducing production time and unit cost, while simultaneously increasing quality and reliability.
	Comprehensive Quality Testing Before the Lifeline even reaches final inspection, it has already been optically inspected by a computer vision system and tested by an automated ICT system that checks thousands of electrical parameters. Each and every Lifeline AED is individually tested and inspected by a trained Defibtech technician before shipment.
	Ready for Delivery - Ready for Rescue Defibtech delivers the most cost-effective AED on the market at the highest levels of quality and reliability. Our customers receive world-class product without having to wait for their life-saving AED to arrive due to production backlogs or manufacturing delays.

Sudden Cardiac Arrest is a Serial Killer... In the United States alone, Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) kills over 400,000 of our family members, co-workers, friends and neighbors each year Each year, more people are killed by Sudden Cardiac Arrest than by car wrecks, cancer, handguns, house fires, and AIDS combined. ...but it can be treated Unlike other health problems of this magnitude, however sudden cardiac arrest is treatable. The only cure for most cases of Sudden Cardiac Arrest is immediate shock therapy from an AED, a device that shocks a lifeless heart back to a normal rhythm

Specifications Defibtech has designed a revolutionary new semi-automatic external defibrillator, from the ground up. Technologically advanced enough to include all mission critical features necessary to provide the most advanced treatment for Sudden Cardiac Arrest. Yet so simple and unintimidating to use that even non-medical personnel can effectively save lives. The Lifeline AED was developed by experienced multidisciplinary engineering teams and incorporates state-of-the-art digital signal processing techniques and advanced ECG analysis algorithms. This enables the device to exceed the American Heart Association performance recommendations, giving the user confidence the correct therapy is being delivered. The Lifeline AED defibrillator uses advanced biphasic technology - including the most studied biphasic shock waveform - and automatically adjusts the shock delivery to the person's individual needs.
