How People Can Save Lives with Home AEDs?

Sudden Cardiac Arrest is one of the Nation’s biggest killers taking about 1,000 lives each day.  Unlike a heart attack which victims often survive, Cardiac Arrest is usually fatal because it’s an electrical misfire in the heart.  Victim’s lose consciousness, fall to the ground and death certainly follows unless CPR and defibrillation occur quickly.  Out of the hospital studies suggest that a casino is one of the best places to suffer an SCA because of the prominence of many AEDs, trained CPR responders and cameras to quickly identify an emergency situation.  One of the worst places to suffer SCA is in the home as public defibrillators are most often not available.  

When AEDs became available on the market they ranged upward of $2000 or $3000 each.  As adoption of AEDs has increased in workplaces, public settings, airports, schools and churches prices have come down quite dramatically.  

So what about the home?  Home defibrillators are becoming increasingly enticing as who do we love and care about more than our family and friends.  There are several AED types which are priced appropriately for the home setting that also have ease-of-use features that make it ideal for this type of use.  Might we recommend the HeartSine Samaritan PAD 350P for just $1225.00 which is not just affordable to buy but also economical to maintain, it uses a combined batter and pad called a PAD-PAK which is replaced just every 4-years.  HeartSine AEDs are remarkably easy to operate as they have both voice prompts and illuminating diagrams to help guide the responder through the rescue and through CPR.  We also recommend the Philips HeartStart OnSite AED for just $1199.00 from the same Philips who make trusted consumer electronic products.  The HeartStart AEDs are distinguished by their red carrying cases and product simplicity.  Responders appreciate that the AED will repeat and change prompting based on the pace of the rescuer.

When one considers what they spend on TVs, audio/video equipment, major appliances which might contribute to a nice lifestyle, making this approximately $1200 investment could help save a life and bring back a loved one from death.  We have helped many families with home defibrillators and many of whom have placed one in the home and one in their personal vehicles.  We applaud all who are thinking proactively and invest in this life-saving technology.  Visit PurchaseAEDs.com for more or email us at Sales@PurchaseAEDs.com or call 855-677-2337 for any questions or needs.
