Zoll Defibrillator (AED) - Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) can strike without warning - anytime and anywhere - regardless of age or health. SCA is a life-threatening condition where the heart suffers abnormal electrical activity and loses its normal rhythm.
The heart stops pumping blood and goes into a dangerous, quivering state termed fibrillation. The federal government estimates that SCA kills more than 350,000 Americans each year. According to the US Occupational Safety and Health Administration, about 400 workers die on the job each year due to SCA.
A Zoll Defibrillator delivers a defibrillation countershock to restore the heart to its normal productive rhythm. The Zoll Automated External Defibrillator applies a sophisticated algorithm to analyze the victim's heart rhythm and detect whether a potentially lethal irregular heartbeat exists. If the algorithm detects a shockable rhythm, the Zoll AED delivers a defibrillation shock through the self-adhesive electrode pads on the victim's chest.
