Abstract:
Aims: Most out-of-hospital cardiac arrests occur at home with dismal bystander defibrillation rates. We investigated automated external defibrillator coverage of home arrests, and the proportion potentially reachable with an automated external defibrillator before emergency medical service arrival according to different bystander activation strategies. Methods and results: Cardiac arrests in homes (private/nursing/senior homes) in Copenhagen, Denmark (2008–2016) and registered automated external defibrillators (2007–2016), were identified. Automated external defibrillator coverage (distance from arrest to automated external defibrillator) and accessibility at the time of arrest were examined according to route distance to nearest automated external defibrillator and emergency medical service response time. The proportion of arrests reachable with an automated external defibrillator by bystander was calculated using two-way (from patient to automated external defibrillator and back) and one-way (from automated external defibrillator to patient) potential activation strategies. Of 1879 home arrests, automated external defibrillator coverage ≤100 m was low (6.3%) and a two-way bystander could potentially only retrieve an accessible automated external defibrillator before emergency medical service in 31.1% ( n=37) of cases. If a bystander only needed to travel one-way to bring an automated external defibrillator (≤100 m, ≤250 m and ≤500 m), 45.4% ( n=54/119), 37.1% ( n=196/529) and 29.8% ( n=350/1174) could potentially be reached before the emergency medical service based on current automated external defibrillator accessibility. Conclusions: Few home arrests were reachable with an automated external defibrillator before emergency medical service if bystanders needed to travel from patient to automated external defibrillator and back. However, nearly one-third of arrests ≤500 m of an automated external defibrillator could be reached before emergency medical service arrival if the bystander only needed to travel one-way from the automated external defibrillator to the patient.

Abstract:
Context: Sudden cardiac arrest is the leading cause of death in young athletes. The purpose of this review is to summarize the role of automated external defibrillators and emergency planning for sudden cardiac arrest in the athletic setting. Evidence Acquisition: Relevant studies on automated external defibrillators, early defibrillation, and public-access defibrillation programs were reviewed. Recommendations from consensus guidelines and position statements applicable to automated external defibrillators in athletics were also considered. Results: Early defibrillation programs involving access to automated external defibrillators by targeted local responders have demonstrated a survival benefit for sudden cardiac arrest in many public and athletic settings. Conclusion: Schools and organizations sponsoring athletic programs should implement automated external defibrillators as part of a comprehensive emergency action plan for sudden cardiac arrest. In a collapsed and unresponsive athlete, sudden cardiac arrest should be suspected and an automated external defibrillator applied as soon as possible, as decreasing the time interval to defibrillation is the most important priority to improve survival in sudden cardiac arrest.

Abstract:
Background: Heart attack, or cardiac arrest, became a leading cause of death after the turn of the century. Defibrillation is one of the most important medical advances of the twentieth century. Defibrillation is a critical step in the treatment of cardiac arrest as it can be the only way to restore a normal heart rhythm and save the life of the individual. However, it is important to note that defibrillation is only effective if it is performed quickly and in conjunction with other life-saving measures such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The history of cardiac defibrillation therapy is long and fascinating, spanning several centuries, many countries and continents. Objective: The aim of this article was to provide historical information about technical and scientific advances in cardiac devices and the development of today defibrillators. Methods: Review of the available literature, historical data, personal contacts, others and personal experience in this field. Discussion: In 1947, Beck published the first paper describing open chest defibrillation of the human heart. Ten years later, Kouwenhoven demonstrated that the heart could be defibrillated through a closed chest. The first external defibrillator weighed 120 kg and delivered 500 v of alternating current (AC) potential. The mere size of the defibrillator restricted its use to surgical suites or other areas hospital locations. In many cases, cardiac arrhythmias recurred. This was thought to be related to the amount of energy used to defibrillate the heart which it was believed caused myocardial damage. These factors limited the practical application of defibrillators. By 1956, a unit was built that could be wheeled into the emergency room, plugged into a wall outlet, and deliver 1000 volts. By 1962, Lown realized that AC current resulted in a high frequency of cardiac arrhythmias and cardiac damage. A direct current (DC) defibrillator, consisting of a battery, a capacitor to store energy, and a transformer was developed. The therapy spread from operating rooms to coronary care units and emergency departments and in the late 1960s left the hospital and started appearing on mobile intensive care units. The first portable EMS defibrillators (used by paramedics) emerged in the early 1970s. In 1980 the automatic implantable cardioverter-defibrillator was invented. Automated external defibrillators began appearing in the late 1980s allowing the therapy to be delivered by EMTs and lay people. The ‘father’ of the modern automated external defibrillator (AED), Professor James Francis (1916-2004) was a physician and cardiologist from Northern Ireland who transformed emergency medicine and paramedic services with the invention of the portable defibrillator. Conclusion: Defibrillators are critical resuscitation devices. The use of reliable defibrillators has led to more effective treatments and improved patient safety through better control and management of complications during Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). The 75th anniversary of the world’s first successful human cardiac defibrillation represents the landmark event that defined the future of cardiovascular medicine and ushered in a new era of advanced cardiac life support.

Abstract:
The occurrence of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a critical life-threatening event that often warrants initial defibrillation with a semi-automated external defibrillator (SAED). In INDIA, about 4280 deaths in 1Lakh are due to SCA. The optimization of allocating a limited number of SAEDs in various types of communities is challenging. Hence this paper presents the implementation of an off-hospital rural and urban public access defibrillators. This defibrillator is a semi-automated defibrillator, a medical device which analyse the patient’s electrocardiogram in order to establish whether he/she is suffering from ventricular fibrillation and if necessary, delivers an electric shock, or defibrillation, to help the heart re-establish an effective rhythm.

AbstractBackgroundAutomated external defibrillators can be life-saving in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.ObjectiveOur aim was to review our experience of prescribing automated external defibrillators for children at increased risk of sudden arrhythmic death.MethodsWe reviewed all automated external defibrillators issued by the Scottish Paediatric Cardiac Electrophysiology Service from 2005 to 2015. All parents were given resuscitation training according to the Paediatric Resuscitation Guidelines, including the use of the automated external defibrillator.ResultsA total of 36 automated external defibrillators were issued to 36 families for 44 children (27 male). The mean age at issue was 8.8 years. Diagnoses at issue included long QT syndrome (50%), broad complex tachycardia (14%), hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (11%), and catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (9%). During the study period, the automated external defibrillator was used in four (9%) children, and in all four the automated external defibrillator correctly discriminated between a shockable rhythm – polymorphic ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation in three patients with one or more shocks delivered – and non-shockable rhythm – sinus rhythm in one patient. Of the three children, two of them who received one or more shocks for ventricular fibrillation/polymorphic ventricular tachycardia survived, but one died as a result of recurrent torsades de pointes. There were no other deaths.ConclusionParents can be taught to recognise cardiac arrest, apply resuscitation skills, and use an automated external defibrillator. Prescribing an automated external defibrillator should be considered for children at increased risk of sudden arrhythmic death, especially where the risk/benefit ratio of an implantable defibrillator is unclear or delay to defibrillator implantation is deemed necessary.

Abstract:
Automated external defibrillators are pervasive computing devices designed for the treatment and management of acute sudden cardiac arrest. This study aims to explain users’ actual use behavior in teams formed by different professions taken after a short time span of interaction with automated external defibrillator. Before the intervention, all the participants were certified with the American Heart Association Basic Life Support for healthcare providers. A statistically significant difference was revealed in mean individual automated external defibrillator technical skills between uniprofessional and interprofessional groups. The technical automated external defibrillator team scores were greater for groups with interprofessional than for those with uniprofessional education. The nontechnical automated external defibrillator skills of interprofessional and uniprofessional teams revealed differences in advantage of interprofessional teams. Students positively accept automated external defibrillators if well-defined and validated training opportunities to use them expertly are available. Uniprofessional teams were successfully supported by their members and, thereby, used automated external defibrillator effectively. Furthermore, the interprofessional approach resulted in as much effective teamwork as the uniprofessional approach.

Abstract:
Background and objectives: National medical records indicate that approximately 350,000–700,000 people die each year from sudden cardiac arrest. The guidelines of the European Resuscitation Council (ERC) and the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) indicate that in addition to resuscitation, it is important—in the case of so-called defibrillation rhythms—to perform defibrillation as quickly as possible. The aim of this study was to assess the use of public automated external defibrillators in out of hospital cardiac arrest in Poland between 2008 and 2018. Materials and Methods: One hundred and twenty cases of use of an automated external defibrillator placed in a public space between 2008 and 2018 were analyzed. The study material consisted of data on cases of use of an automated external defibrillator in adults (over 18 years of age). Only cases of automated external defibrillators (AED) use in a public place other than a medical facility were analysed, additionally excluding emergency services, i.e., the State Fire Service and the Volunteer Fire Service, which have an AED as part of their emergency equipment. The survey questionnaire was sent electronically to 1165 sites with AEDs and AED manufacturers. A total of 298 relevant feedback responses were received. Results: The analysis yielded data on 120 cases of AED use in a public place. Conclusions: Since 2016, there has been a noticeable increase in the frequency of use of AEDs located in public spaces. This is most likely related to the spread of public access to defibrillation and increased public awareness.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTObjectiveTo describe the policy and practice relating to cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and defibrillation in cardiac arrest in Australian hospitals.DesignCross‐sectional postal survey conducted in December 2001, using a semi‐structured, four‐page questionnaire.ParticipantsAustralian hospitals with more than 10 beds.Main outcome measuresType of defibrillator; provision of CPR/defibrillation training for healthcare professionals; hospital policy as to who can use the defibrillator.ResultsOf the 878 hospitals surveyed, 665 (76%) responded. All but one hospital indicated that CPR training was provided for nursing staff, with 12‐monthly or more frequent updates; only 55% of hospitals (366) indicated that CPR training was provided for doctors. 21 of the 665 responding hospitals (3.2%) indicated that they did not have a defibrillator. 43% of hospitals had one or more defibrillators with shock advisory capacity (ie, automated external defibrillators [AEDs]). Of the 644 hospitals with defibrillators, 16% (101) indicated that registered nurses were not permitted to defibrillate; this included 9% of hospitals with AEDs.ConclusionsThe importance of CPR in cardiac arrest has been accepted by Australian hospitals, but the overwhelming evidence that “time to defibrillation” is the single most important determinant of cardiac arrest outcome seems less accepted. All Australian hospitals should review their resuscitation policies and practices to reflect this fact, with defibrillation by nurses, who are usually first on the scene, providing the best opportunity to minimise time to defibrillation.

Abstract:
Despite the development and widespread implementation of Basic Life Support and Advanced Cardiac Life Support, the percentage of patients who survive in-hospital cardiac arrest has remained stable at approximately 15%. Although survival rates may approach 90% in coronary care units, survival rates plummet outside of these units. The lower survival rates for cardiac arrest that occur outside of the coronary care unit may relate to the time elapsed between the onset of ventricular fibrillation and first defibrillation. The advent of automated external defibrillators has made it possible to decrease the time elapsed before first defibrillation in non-critical care areas of the hospital. First responders need only recognize that the patient is unresponsive, apneic, and pulseless before attaching and activating the automated external defibrillator. Our research shows that, as part of Basic Life Support training, non-critical care nurses can learn to use the device and can retain the knowledge and skill over time. Establishing an in-hospital automated external defibrillator program requires commitment from administration, physicians, and nursing personnel. Critical care practitioners should be aware of this technology and the literature that supports its safety and effectiveness when used by non-critical care first responders. Critical care nurses are in a unique position to effect changes that will decrease the time between the onset of cardiac arrest and first defibrillation.

Abstract:
India is one of the most populous countries of the world. Due to over population, ignorance of health has been remained the major problems in India. For every one minute a death, oops in because of heart attack. Ambulance service plays an important role in saving lives. Its primary purpose is to give first aid to the sick or injured people in the emergency scene. To save a life is auspicious as well as precious. The idea here is to provide an intelligent smart health system using some sensors and microcontrollers; it will sense the body condition and send the data to the collaborated hospital’s database. This proposed idea gives us the development of a wireless-based system for pulse rate, blood pressure and temperature monitoring to be used in ambulance. By this, the real time information can be passed to nearby hospitals to alert them about the critical conditions over IOT. This hardware device is fixed inside the ambulance to sense the patient’s health, collect the info during a wireless device called node MCU and immediately pass the database to the hospital’s server by the concept of IOT. This may intimate the hospital officials and should answer the required actions to be taken to the person in emergency.

Abstract:
<strong>Objective:</strong> When there is a rhythm like ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia, prompt and effective defibrillation is the critical intervention in cardiac arrest. Therefore, knowing what to do and being familiar with the instruments used for this purpose is vital. The present study aimed to investigate the possibility of insufficient knowledge and opinions of consultant and resident anesthesiologists about defibrillators and to put forward constructive proposals for reforming, if necessary. <strong>Material and Methods:</strong> This cross-sectional survey study included consultant and resident anesthesiologists. We sent questionnaires to 467 anesthesiologists via e-mail. The questionnaire included demographics, working status, duration, residency institution, workplace, experience with the defibrillator and automated external defibrillator (AED), previous cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training, and technical knowledge of defibrillators &amp;AEDs. <strong>Results:</strong> &nbsp;Three hundred and forty (72.8%) anesthesiologists filled out the questionnaires. Their mean age was 38.3&plusmn;8.3 years. Twenty-five percent of them were residents. Of the anesthesiologists, 325(95.6%) used a defibrillator, 129(37.9%) witnessed out-hospital cardiac arrest, 69(20.3%) used AEDs, and 216(63.5%) attended CPR courses. There are significant differences in opinions and knowledge of anesthesiologists about defibrillator/defibrillation when compared to working duration, workplace, being a consultant, and having a previous CPR course. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> Experience and information about defibrillators among anesthesiologists seem to be lacking. Continuous retraining through the guidelines can be considered as a possible updating method.

Abstract:
The problem of cardiac arrest, particularly out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), is the subject of continuous research. The aim of this study was to analyze the use of an automated external defibrillator (AED) during the resuscitation of an adult in public places in Poland between 2015 and 2020. A retrospective analysis of the selected documentation obtained from AED distributors, the medical records obtained from the emergency call center, and the emergency medical teams was conducted. During the analysis period, there were 100 cases of recorded and documented use of AEDs in OHCAs in public places. In 70% of the cases, defibrillation was performed with an AED. This result could be higher, but the study’s methodology and limited access to data only allowed for this result. In Poland, there are no legal acts on the registration of automatic external defibrillators and their implementation. Appropriate registries should be introduced nationwide as soon as possible. Due to the inadequacy of the medical records of the emergency medical teams to record the use of automated external defibrillators by a bystander to an incident, changes to these documents should be pursued. Based on such a small cohort, it is not possible to conclude that the return of spontaneous blood circulation is correlated with the use of AEDs and public access to defibrillation PADs.

Abstract:
Unified approaches to ensuring the chain of survival can improve the patient’s prognosis both in out-of-hospital and in-hospital cardiac arrest.Aim. To discuss practical issues of introducing a program for the availability of automated external defibrillation in a cancer center.Material and methods. For four years, our healthcare facility has been implementing a training program for basic and advanced life support according to the European Resuscitation Council standards, combined with the creation and development of an infrastructure for the availability of automatic defibrillation. A roadmap and infrastructure were developed for the project implementation.Results. In 2018-2022, 229 employees (114 doctors, 85 nurses and 30 nonmedical workers) were trained under the basic life support program. Fifteen defibrillators were placed in various units. During the specified period, first aid in case of sudden cardiac arrest using an automated external defibrillator before the resuscitation team arrival was independently provided by doctors and nurses of departments three times. To implement training in the continuous education system, the curriculum has passed the examination and accreditation in the edu. rosminzdrav system.Conclusion. The development and implementation of such initiatives requires significant organizational and methodological work, including continuous education system. However, in our opinion, this is an extremely useful tool for improving the safety and quality of medical care.

Abstract:
AbstractThis report describes the case of an 18-year-old woman who was found in the sea suffering from cardiac arrest and hypothermia, 90 minutes after she entered the water to swim. The rescue team used an automated external defibrillator to record prehospital management. This recording showed an isoelectric electrocardiogram followed by a ventricular fibrillation, an unsuccessful defibrillation, and lastly, a return of spontaneous circulation with Osborn wave. When she was admitted to the intensive care unit two hours later, the woman's central temperature was 28°C.The case is interesting because of several points. First, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the only case of cardiac arrest with severe hypothermia followed by a return of spontaneous circulation documented with an automated external defibrillator recording. Second, the hypothermia is an atypical case occurring in the summer. Hypothermia must be considered even in unlikely circumstances, such as summer in the south of France, when ambient temperatures are high. Lastly, after three days, the patient recovered successfully from cardiopulmonary arrest without cerebral dysfunction.ClaretP-G, BobbiaX, DingemansG, OndeO, SebbaneM, de La CoussayeJ-E.

Abstract:
Immediate resuscitation is required for any sudden cardiac arrest. To improve the survival of the patient, a device to be operated by witnesses of the event—automated external defibrillator (AED)—has been produced. The aim of this study is to analyze the way and correctness of use of automated external defibrillators placed in public spaces in Polish cities. The data analyzed (using Excel 2019 and R 3.5.3 software) are 120 cases of use of automated external defibrillators, placed in public spaces in the territory of Poland in 2008–2018. The predominant location of AED use is in public transportation facilities, and the injured party is the traveler. AED use in non-hospital settings is more common in male victims aged 50–60 years. Owners of AEDs inadequately provide information about their use. The documentation that forms the basis of the emergency medical services intervention needs to be refined. There is no mention of resuscitation performed by a witness of an event or of the use of an AED. In addition, Poland lacks the legal basis for maintaining a register of automated external defibrillators. There is a need to develop appropriate documents to determine the process of reporting by the owners of the use of AEDs in out-of-hospital conditions (OHCA).

Abstract:
AbstractAim:In South Korea, the law concerning automated external defibrillators (AEDs) states that they should be installed in specific places including apartment complexes. This study was conducted to investigate the current status and effectiveness of installation and usage of AEDs in South Korea.Methods:Installation and usage of AEDs in South Korea is registered in the National Emergency Medical Center (NEMC) database. Compared were the installed number, usage, and annual rate of AED use according to places of installation. All data were obtained from the NEMC database.Results:After excluding AEDs installed in ambulances or fire engines (n = 2,003), 36,498 AEDs were registered in South Korea from 1998 through 2018. A higher number of AEDs were installed in places required by the law compared with those not required by the law (20,678 [56.7%] vs. 15,820 [43.3%]; P &lt;.001). Among them, 11,318 (31.0%) AEDs were installed in apartment complexes. The overall annual rate of AED use was 0.38% (95% CI, 0.33-0.44). The annual rate of AED use was significantly higher in places not required by the law (0.62% [95% CI, 0.52-0.72] versus 0.21% [95% CI, 0.16-0.25]; P &lt;.001). The annual rate of AED use in apartment complexes was 0.13% (95% CI, 0.08-0.17).Conclusion:There were significant mismatches between the number of installed AEDs and the annual rate of AED use among places. To optimize the benefit of AEDs in South Korea, changes in the policy for selecting AED placement are needed.
