Expanded information
I. The promotion of AED status quo
Europe and America Developed countries such as airports, shopping malls, plazas, subway stations and other public **** places are set up AED, as the scene witnesses the first time to sudden death of patients with effective first aid equipment.
Beijing, Chengdu, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Haikou and other cities have promoted the configuration and use of AEDs in key public **** places. There are still many cities with zero AED configuration, many cities have only a few units in the city, and some cities are only temporarily equipped with AEDs for international events such as marathons.
Second, the operational problems
Most people are almost unaware of the purpose of this device. "I don't know," "I'm not sure," "I can't read" is the reflection of most passing citizens who hear about AEDs, and many are even "hearing about it for the first time. "
Strictly speaking, the AED is not a device that can be used by the public.
Strictly speaking, adults should learn to use the AED, each unit should also have someone to master the first aid skills, and now master the AED use of general knowledge is quite scarce.
Three, related to improve the proposal
In addition to public **** place, police, teachers, bus drivers, railroad crew and other professionals, but also need to CPR and AED use popularization, to improve the rescue success rate.
AED is a life-saving weapon, the critical moment can not fall off the chain, critical moments if the AED can not be found, or broken, etc. will cause serious consequences.
The need to speed up the construction of the Internet "first aid map", so that the public through the cell phone can be searched to the nearby AED, timely rescue.
