What kind of first-aid equipment for common people is generally available in crowded places in developed Western countries. Thank you.

What kind of first-aid equipment for ordinary people in developed countries in the West is AED (Automated External Defibrillator).

Automatic external defibrillators, also known as AEDs, are far more prevalent in foreign countries than in our own, and they are usually deployed in places where large numbers of people congregate, such as shopping centers, airports, train stations, hotels, gymnasiums, schools, and other places where they are used by emergency medical services.

In Asia, AEDs are more commonly installed in densely populated countries and regions such as Japan and Hong Kong. In Hong Kong, AEDs are installed in hospitals, police stations (including emergency vehicles), ambulance depots, and large shopping malls; and since 2011, AEDs have been installed in all venues under the jurisdiction of the Hong Kong Leisure and Cultural Services Department.

In Mainland China, AEDs are only found in airports, high-speed rail stations, some subway stations, fire department ambulance and military health teams, and some airlines are fully equipped on passenger planes; since April 2013, all stations of the Taipei Metro, household offices, schools and other public ****places in Taipei City have been equipped with AEDs; since June 13, 2013, the Kaohsiung Metro has begun installing AEDs in stations of the Red and Orange Line.

Extended information:

In the United States, the "Publicly Accessible Defibrillator" program was implemented in the 1990s through the passage of a bill that placed AEDs in public places. AEDs are required to be accessible within ten minutes and through training of lay people such as the general public. In Hong Kong, AEDs are installed in hospitals, police stations (including assault rushes), ambulance depots, and large shopping malls.

Since 2011, AEDs have been installed in all venues under the jurisdiction of the Leisure and Cultural Services Department of Hong Kong.

In Taiwan, the promotion of the installation of AEDs has been underway since 2000, and the total number of AEDs installed up to March 2015 was about 4,000, or 17.4 units per 100,000 people. 17.4 units.

However, the placement rate of AEDs in mainland cities is generally low. At present, cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Chongqing, Tianjin, Shenyang, Hangzhou, Harbin, Haikou and Dalian are installing AEDs in stadiums and public **** places such as international airport terminals and subway stations, but their total number of AEDs does not exceed 1,000.

It is understood that Beijing, in addition to the capital airport, the railway station, subway, shopping malls, schools, tourist areas and other places have not been installed; Hangzhou at the end of 2014, in the airport, subway and civic center and other places to put 15 AEDs, two years has never been used; Wuhan's railway station and subway station is also difficult to see the AED's body; and the current domestic configuration of the AED is not yet allowed to untrained laypersons to use them.

To this end, it is recommended that public **** places with high traffic flow be gradually improved and equipped with automated external defibrillators (AEDs); that non-professionals who have been trained and skilled in the use of AEDs be allowed to use them; and that staff at public **** places be skilled in and accurately master the use of AEDs and other first-aid measures.
