Defib In The Spotlight- The ZOLL AED 3

Trying to decide which defibrillator you should purchase can be a rather overwhelming decision, you know whichever you decide will save a life, but there are so many to choose from.

Overview of the the ZOLL AED 3

The ZOLL AED 3 is part of ZOLL’s public access defibrillator range and is available in both the Semi-Automatic and Fully- Automatic model.

It is recommended that untrained users purchase the Semi- Automatic defibrillator over the Fully- Automatic defibrillator model as the Semi uses a button to deliver the shock, meaning the user has complete control over when the shock will be delivered and typically has a faster shock rate, this can mean a greater chance of survival, as the faster the shock is delivered the higher the possibility that it can restart the heart back to a regular rhythm.

The ZOLL AED 3 is a powerful defibrillator which combines advanced technology with user friendly features to make accessible to both trained professionals and the untrained bystander. This life-saving device is specifically designed to provide effective treatment during sudden cardiac arrest emergencies, ensuring that every rescue attempt has the best possible chance of success.

Features of the the ZOLL AED 3

• Real CPR help®. One of the key features of the ZOLL AED 3 defibrillator is its real-time CPR feedback. This means that during the rescue process, the device can issue clear visual and auditory prompts to guide the user in performing good CPR.
• Universal Adult/Child CPR Uni-padz. The ZOLL AED 3 defibrillator is equipped with these unique pads which can be used on both children and adults, eliminating the time taken to switch between different pads which saves valuable time. The pads also come with a pair of clothing scissors to make accessibility quicker and easier.
• Child/Adult Button. Having a child button on your defibrillator doesn’t just save time, but money too. By being able to use one set on pads on both adults and children you remove the long-term cost of having to purchase two sets of pads.
• Dual-orientated. For maximum visibility the ZOLL AED 3 is dual-orientated, it can be laid flat or stood upright, so it can be visible from any angle.
• The ZOLL AED 3 plays a constant metronome sound at 100 beats per minute (as complies with the latest CPR guidelines) to ensure that the user can perform CPR as effectively as possible.
• High-resolution screen. The high-resolution screen on the device shows full-colour graphic images and text which is accompanied by voice prompts making the AED 3 easy for anybody, regardless of their level of training, to use.
• Wi-Fi-enabled Programme Management Onboard. By registering your defibrillator with ZOLL’s PlusTrac AED Programme Management System via computer or mobile phone and linking your device to Wi-Fi the programme will send you regular reports on the devices status and self-test results, as well as updating you on any reports via email. It will also let you know if your pads or battery are expired.
• Low Total Cost of Ownership. The ZOLL AED 3 defibrillator was manufactured with a low cost to own in mind. Both the pads and battery have a life of 5 years. Meaning they don’t have to be replaced as frequently, in turn saving you more money.
• Portable and durable. The ZOLL AED 3 weighs only 2.5kg, comes with a handle and has the option of a carry case at an extra cost, so is lightweight and easily portable. The device also has an IP55 rating and passed a 1-metre drop test.
