AED Machine

What Is An AED Machine?

An Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is a portable, life-saving device designed to treat sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). It delivers an electric shock through the chest to the heart, aiming to restore a normal heart rhythm. Easy to use by both medical professionals and laypersons, AEDs are commonly found in hospitals, schools, offices, airports, malls, and even homes.

At YNB Healthcare, we supply advanced AED machines that are user-friendly, compact, and reliable—ensuring that critical treatment can be administered within seconds during emergencies.

Benefits Of Using an AED

AEDs drastically improve survival rates when used within 3–5 minutes of cardiac arrest.

User-Friendly

Built-in voice and visual prompts guide users throughout the process.

Safe for Use

Smart technology ensures a shock is delivered only when medically necessary.

Lightweight & Portable

Ideal for public spaces, workplaces, and emergency responders.

When Is an AED Used?

AEDs are used in emergency cases of:

Ventricular Fibrillation (VF)

erratic heartbeats

Ventricular Tachycardia (VT)

extremely rapid heartbeats

Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA)

It is not used on individuals who are conscious, breathing normally, or showing signs of circulation.

How Does An AED Work? – Step-by-Step Guide

Turn on the AED

Most units activate with a single button or by opening the lid.

Expose the Chest

Remove clothing and wipe the chest dry if needed.

Attach Electrode Pads

Stick the AED pads to the patient’s chest as illustrated on each pad.

Let the AED Analyze

The machine will analyze the heart rhythm. Do not touch the patient during this phase.

Shock Delivery (If Needed)

If the AED advises a shock, ensure everyone is clear and press the “shock” button.

Report and Diagnosis

Continue chest compressions immediately after the shock and follow AED prompts.

Potential Risks And Limitations

Although AEDs are incredibly safe, potential concerns include:

Minor skin burns or irritation from electrode pads

Failure to revive if used too late or improperly

Misuse if training and instructions are ignored

Not suitable for use in patients with implanted defibrillators
