I like these Zoll AEDs because they give you feedback about your compressions.

There's a difference between infants and children. Children are from 1 year old to puberty. Infants are from birth to one year. Comptessions are performed differently for infants and children. The two finger method is used only on infants. One hand is used on children.

Really thorough and detailed explanation. Thank you. I hope I never need to do this but helps to be prepared.

I’ve watched a bunch of videos about this and it is noticeable how the user interface of these devices vary widely from one model to another. As a person with anxiety who often experiences brain freeze in stressful situations this is not helpful. I wish there is some standard they need to follow from how to turn it on, to the content of the voice prompts to how you deliver the shock, etc. I suppose the takeaway for me is : get familiar with the specific type of equipment available in your work place (or places you frequent). Of course I’ll have to figure that out without triggering the loud audible alarm

AEDs need to be used in conjunction with effective chest compressions. CPR Should continue while someone else is applied aed

Of course, never ever do chest compressions when an AED is applied when the "shock sequence" is going to be deployed. Stay away from the patient when the shock is going to be applied, and redo chest compressions after you are told you are safe to do chest compressions after the AED-delivered shock is done.

All other units require placing the right pad below the left pectoral where the heart is located.

Important read for lay persons not in medical field.
Who knows it could help you save someone who is very important to you

[SuperBUB]

During cpr should we provide breathing help from mouth

[AwesomeRepix]

The one I bought says: "Adults only" So if I see a baby I should: "Oh no! that baby is not an adult! dang it! I better move on"

What to do with the AED after being used? Disposal?

[edgarmullins]

Why does some show a pad being applied the chest and others show a pad being applied to the right arm?
