AED

Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation, often abbreviated as CPR delivers a small amount of blood to the heart, keeping the body and the brain to function until defibrillation takes place. Defibrillation is a shock offered to the heart to restart its regular function.

Most of the licensed classes in CPR training include AED certification, which teaches how to use the electronic defibrillation unit on heart attack victims. AED Certification San Ramon is required by Doctors, nurses, dentists, licensed physiotherapists, and chiropractors, or other health professionals.

WHAT IS AN AED?

AED is an instrument used to complement CPR.
Automated external defibrillator (AED) is a lightweight, mobile device that gives an electric shock through the chest to the heart. It is used to help those people who are going through a sudden cardiac arrest.

Adams safety helps the individual/group to get an AED Certification San Ramon. An AED certified professional will be guided well and he needs to follow the following steps to use AED:
 Firstly an AED certified person needs to find the pulse and check if the person is breathing.
 In case the pulse can’t be found emergency help needs to be called for.
 The specialist needs to turn on AED and the voice instructions will follow after that. It tells how to check the pulse and acknowledge whether the person is breathing or not. It will guide how to position electrode pads on the person’s chest.
 The next step is to deliver the shock. Once the pads are placed in the position, the AED device itself measures the person’s heart rhythm and determines if the shock is required. If it is, then the device instructs the user to maintain a distance and push the button to deliver the shock.
 Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation is required after the shock. The AED will guide the same. The process can be repeated as required until the emergency course of action takes place.
