AED belongs to the third category of medical devices in China (that is, medical devices that are listed as the highest level and must be strictly controlled). Some of these medical devices are used for implantation in human body, others are used for life support and maintenance, which are potentially dangerous to human body, and their safety and effectiveness must be strictly controlled), so the public is not allowed to buy them at will in the market. At present, there are three main types of medical devices allowed for family use in China: first, physical therapy equipment for family use; One is home monitoring equipment (such as sphygmomanometer and thermometer); There are also some medical equipment for rehabilitation.
Moreover, the installation of aed in public places in China only started in 2008 Olympic Games. In the past two years, the number of places where AEDs are installed outside Beijing has also increased, but the public still doesn't know much about this equipment. In addition, I must make it clear that even in foreign countries (the United States), the purchase of AED is not arbitrary, and it can only be purchased with a doctor's prescription, otherwise it is not allowed. It's FDA policy.
