Recently, the "Hangzhou public **** places automatic external defibrillator management measures" was officially introduced, will be formally implemented on January 1, 2021 onwards. However, the number of AEDs configured in public **** occasions is only 604, the number of people with knowledge of first aid popularization only accounted for 24% of the household population, even if the staff of the public **** occasions only a few people have received the relevant training courses, with AED first aid qualifications, many people for the AEDs are a state of ignorance. This is Hangzhou AED popularization of a roadblock, this legislation will help crack this is not.
AED (Automated external defibrillator) is the Chinese equivalent of an automatic external defibrillator. This medical device is different from the manual defibrillators used by medical professionals in hospitals. AEDs are specially designed for use by the general public, so they are much simpler and easier to operate, and usually require only the power supply to be turned on and the patch to be applied to the patient. The user only needs to follow the instructions and beeps. If an AED can be obtained and administered four minutes before a patient's sudden death, the patient's survival rate can be greatly improved.
No, using an AED device to give first aid to a person who has died suddenly simply buys the patient more time to wait for a medical professional to arrive, and don't be fooled into believing that this is all that is needed to save the patient's life and neglect to call an ambulance. The right thing to do is to call an ambulance at the same time as administering the aid, and try to use the AED on the patient before waiting for the paramedics to arrive, which will greatly increase the chances of the patient being saved successfully.
Hangzhou introduced the AED approach set a ? Good man clause? Such a provision will allow people to meet the patient offenses no worries, can be decisive on the patient rescue.
Hangzhou in the introduction of AED legislation at the same time, but also in close proximity to the first aid knowledge and skills related to publicity and promotion, hope that in the near future to realize every household at least one person will save, dare to save.
