Q: When is AED suitable for use?
A：
AED automated external defibrillators are used to treat patients (adults and children) with suspected cardiac arrest who are unresponsive, breathless, and show no signs of circulation. After attaching the electrodes, the device will automatically determine whether defibrillation is needed and operate according to the voice prompts.
Q: Are there any restrictions on the deployment mechanism and environment of AED automated external defibrillators?
A：
Lepu AED equipment can be deployed in any organization and anywhere, and there is no restriction on the use environment.
• Public areas: can be in the subway, airport, living community, school, shopping center, factory, office space, etc.;
• Transportation: bullet trains, high-speed railways, trains, long-distance buses, long-distance vehicles and taxis, online car-hailing, tool cars, police motorcycles, police cars, fire trucks and other short-distance vehicles;
• Medical institutions: used in the waiting hall, outpatient and laboratory departments, ultrasound departments and other auxiliary departments of hospitals, community service centers, township health centers, health care institutions, dry rest homes, rehabilitation institutions and pre-hospital emergency environments.
• High-risk families: It is recommended that families with members who have had cardiac arrest or are at high risk of cardiac arrest are equipped if conditions allow.
Q: Can AED electrodes be reused?
A：
The electrodes used in Lepu AED defibrillator are disposable, and the main component of the electrodes is conductive hydrogel, as long as the defibrillation discharge is once, the component will be lost, and it cannot be reused, otherwise it will reduce the defibrillation effect and burn the patient's skin. In addition, with the influence of time and environmental factors, there will be a certain loss of water in the electrode, so after the expiration date, even if it has not been used, it should be replaced in time to ensure the defibrillation effect and avoid chest muscle damage to the patient to the greatest extent. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the expiration date of the electrode during inspection.
Q: Is the AED battery rechargeable?
A：
Lepu AED battery uses a disposable maintenance-free manganese dioxide lithium battery, because AED equipment is usually scattered in public places and other places where it is needed, it is used at low frequency and requires a long standby time. The standby time battery has a long standby time, saves maintenance costs, and is more suitable for the use characteristics of AEDs. If rechargeable batteries are used, if a first-aid incident occurs, it is likely that maintenance is neglected and not charged in time, which will affect emergency rescue. At present, the battery life of Lepu AED is 5 years, it is not rechargeable, you need to pay attention to the battery validity period, and you need to replace it in time if the power is insufficient.
Q: Will there be a reminder when the device is abnormal or when an emergency call or rescue incident occurs?
A：
At present, Lepu AED automatic external defibrillator can transmit data in three ways: remote wireless network, Bluetooth and USB interface:
• Remote wireless network connection AED intelligent IoT management cloud platform, which can transmit equipment status and emergency event related data.
• Bluetooth connectivity maintenance software tool to view configuration information and test results.
• USB connection, which can export device information, test data, audio recordings during emergency and other data.
That is, when there is an abnormal state of the device or an emergency call and rescue event occurs, if the AED device is connected to the AED intelligent IoT management cloud platform through a remote wireless network, it can be reminded in an all-round way through SMS, email, phone call, and system message.
Q: After the AED is installed, how to carry out efficient daily management of the equipment?
A：
Under normal circumstances, the Lepu AED will not shut down after installation, but will be in standby mode and ready at any time. The device will automatically self-test every day, if the device is normal, the status indicator will flash green, and if it is abnormal, it will flash red. The equipment administrator needs to observe the status indicator every day, record whether the device can be used normally, and contact the supplier in time if there is an abnormality.
If the AED is equipped with a remote wireless network module, it can be connected to the AED smart IoT management cloud platform, and the status information, location information, service life and other information of the device can be viewed on the system at any time, without having to go to the site, realizing remote online efficient inspection and saving labor costs.
