An AED, Automated External Defibrillator, is an important part of any emergency safety station whether in a workplace, restaurant, hotel or around the home. With simple instructions, anyone can use an AED, potentially saving the life of someone suffering from cardiac arrhythmia, or irregular heartbeats.
By delivering an electric shock, an AED returns the heart to its normal rhythm, giving time for paramedics to arrive while avoiding cardiac arrest.
When looking to purchase an AED, one of the first things you will need to decide is whether to purchase a new or a refurbished unit.
