The Importance of Registering Your Defibrillator to The Circuit

An AED (automated external defibrillator) is a life-saving device that can deliver a shock to a person’s heart if they are suffering from sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). SCA is a condition where the heart stops beating normally and can cause death within minutes if not treated. Defibrillators are designed to be easy to use by the public, with zero training required, and can increase the chances of survival by up to between 50-70% when used within the first 3-5 minutes.

Register your Device

However, just purchasing a defibrillator is not enough. It is also important to register your device with your local ambulance service, with The Circuit or GoodSAM App, the national defibrillator network that maps PADs (Public Access Defibrillators) across the UK. By registering your defibrillator, you can ensure that it is accessible and ready to use in an emergency.

Here are some benefits of registering your defibrillator:

-Registered automatic external defibrillators can be located quickly in an emergency, saving valuable time that could mean the difference between life and death.
-Registering your device will allow you to receive regular maintenance reminders to help you keep your device functioning optimally, as well as regular reminders to check on your defibrillator pads and batteries and when to replace them if needed.

– You can also become a part of a community of lifesavers who are committed to improving cardiac arrest survival rates.

Quick and easy registration

Registering your defibrillator is quick and easy and doesn’t cost a penny. You can do it online by visiting the circuit, or by contacting your local ambulance service. You will need to provide some basic information about your defibrillator, such as its location, model, serial number, expiry date of battery and pads, and contact details of the owner or guardian.

By registering your device to the circuit, you are making a difference in saving lives. Don’t let your defibrillator go unnoticed or unused. Register it today and join the fight against SCA.
