following cardiac arrest reduces a
person's chance of survival by 14
per cent hence so many
organisations have invested in
Automated External Defibrillators
(AEDs).
However work carried out by
JPen Medical has revealed that
even though many AEDs would
pass a self-test, around 10% of them
would still fail a 'live test' carried
out by a qualified engineer. Medical
professionals get their AEDs live
tested every 12 months, a service,
JPen Medical is now offering to
nonmedical AED operators.
For a charge of £39.95 + VAT, a
JPen Medical's qualified engineers
will carry out an on site detailed
live testing schedule.
