NPC representatives suggested that public places should be equipped with a large number of AEDs. What is an AED?

The proposal of NPC deputies to equip a large number of AEDs in public places has also triggered a heated discussion among netizens on the Internet. It must be said that the large-scale use of aed can save lives. AEDs, also known as automated external defibrillator, is a lifesaving artifact, which can save people from fire and water. The operation is very simple and the effect is particularly remarkable. If a large number of AEDs can be equipped, more life safety problems can be solved.

First, why do you need a large number of AEDs?

Generally speaking, areas with a large population over 50 need to be equipped with automated external defibrillator. We all know that the older people are, the more likely they are to have problems. Sudden cardiac death is a very common senile disease, and we all know that people's work pressure is very high now. It is very likely that sudden cardiac death will occur in later life. According to related reports, the incidence of sudden cardiac death in China is about 540,000, ranking first in the world every year, which is equivalent to about 1.500 people dying of sudden cardiac death every day. Very shocking. If a large number of AEDs can be equipped, this problem can be effectively avoided.

Second, the number of AED parliaments is insufficient.

Because the use of AED is very simple, it must be said that most cities in China are still in their infancy, and there is still a big gap compared with many developed countries. The number of AED parliaments is also very insufficient. In addition, we don't know much about AED, and the awareness rate is not very high. Not many people can use it. Although the operation is simple, few people can correctly tell how he uses these problems.

Three or four minutes of gold

It must be said that there are about 540,000 patients with cardiac arrest in China every year, and the success rate in big cities is less than 3%, and the success rate in other regions is even lower. It can be seen that this disease is a sudden disease and it is difficult to treat it effectively. If there is no corresponding medical equipment, once it exceeds 4 minutes, it is very likely that people will face death. At the same time, it must be said that more than 80% of sudden cardiac death cases occur outside medical institutions, which shows that if this disease is not effectively treated, it will also have a very great impact on this person's life. Quite a few studies show that the probability of cardiac arrest in subway stations will increase, so we also appeal. We need a lot of equipment, AED.
