The Australian climate allows us to be one of the most active countries in the world but sadly this year over 33,000 Australians will die from Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) but unfortunately the majority of Sudden Cardiac Arrests (SCA) happen in the home. It can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere, man, woman, the old, the young and in rare cases even children.
As a result of an increased risk factor, many people have installed an Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) in their homes and cars. By having a defibrillator in your home, you can be prepared for this potentially devastating event.
Australian Defibrillators now has the latest easy-to-use Automatic External Defibrillators (AED) solutions where virtually anyone can save a life. Studies have shown that widespread availability of Automated External Defibrillators (AED) in homes and vehicles and early response can dramatically increase victim survival rates.
Pre-hospital Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) survival rates are currently less than 5% however early defibrillation within minutes of the arrest can increase this rate to well above 50%.
The only real treatment for Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) is defibrillation - an electric current that shocks the heart so that a normal rhythm may resume. This shock must be delivered within minutes of the arrest to successfully prevent death. For every minute that passes without defibrillation therapy, the victim’s chance of survival reduces by 10% and waiting for paramedics to arrive can cost crucial minutes.
