AED stands for Automated External Defibrillator. It is a safe and easy to use device that delivers a therapeutic electric shock to the heart as treatment for a victim in Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA). AEDs are mobile and often found in cabinets mounted on the walls of several of our buildings, much like a fire extinguisher. There are 18 AEDs in PebbleCreek, located as listed above.
During SCA the heart stops suddenly and in 90 percent of cases the heart goes into a fatal rhythm known as ventricular fibrillation (often referred to as V Fib). The only treatment to correct ventricular fibrillation is to defibrillate the heart by applying an electric shock to it. AEDs can be used on a victim of any age by people with no medical training. The unit has a diagram showing the user where to apply the gel pads and audible prompts to assist including when to push the shock button.
Of course, it will make you more comfortable if you get hands-on practice in the use of these devices. AED training is now routine in CPR & First Aid certification classes and CPR renewal classes.
Sudden cardiac arrest can happen to anyone at any time. People of all ages — from infants to teens to older adults — can experience sudden cardiac arrest without warning. This means a cardiac arrest emergency could happen to you or someone nearby while you’re out and about in PebbleCreek. Whether exercising at the fitness center, playing sports, dining in a clubhouse restaurant or just gathering socially with friends.
