Problems solved by technology

[0008] As noted above, operator inexperience, anxiety, and / or his inability to read the identification of switch 20 can delay the actuation of AED 12, and thus delay the setup and use of AED 12.
Unfortunately, this delay increases the time the patient is in cardiac arrest, which may reduce the patient's chances of survival

Abstract

An automated or semi-automated defibrillator (AED) automatically turns on when an operator removes it from a storage location. This automatic activation often decreases the time it takes the operator-particularly an inexperienced or anxious operator-to set up and use the AED to resuscitate a patient in cardiac arrest. Furthermore, the AED can be designed to automatically turn off when the operator returns it to the storage location.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to a medical device such as an automatic or semi-automatic external defibrillator (AED), and more particularly to a defibrillator capable of being switched on, off or automatically switched on and off, a defibrillator for storing A housing for a defibrillator, a system including the defibrillator and the housing, and related methods. Background technique [0002] AEDs have saved the lives of many patients suffering from cardiac arrest in non-hospital settings, and the number saved each year is increasing due to advances in AED technology. An AED is a battery-operated device that analyzes a patient's heart rate and, if appropriate, delivers an electric shock (automatic) or gives instructions to the operator to deliver a shock to the patient through electrode pads (semi-automatic). For example, such shocks often regenerate patients experiencing ventricular fibrillation. [0003] Because cardiac arrest can cause p...
