    These things should be mandatory in the work place if you have over a certain number of employees imo.

    Well it’s cheaper to not have one. Why you think they train you how to cpr.

    Everyone should read it. 80-90 percent people could be saved with this equipment. I think Philips is also good one. dailymail.co.uk/hea…tml (edited)

    Survival statistics from NICE;

    • Fewer than 1 in 10 people survive an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
      • Around 7–8% of people in whom resuscitation is attempted survive to hospital discharge.
    • Two of the most important factors which influence survival include the time between cardiac arrest and attempted cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and early defibrillation.
    • Immediate initiation of CPR can double or quadruple survival from out-hospital cardiac arrest.
    • Defibrillation within 3–5 minutes of collapse can produce survival rates up to 50–70%.
      • Each minute of delay reduces the probability of survival to hospital discharge by 10%.
      • Fewer than 2% of people have an automated external defibrillator (AED) deployed before the ambulance arrives.
    • Additional factors associated with poor prognosis include male sex, age over 60 years, active malignancy, and chronic kidney disease.
    • The initial rhythm at first discovery of an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest also affects the prognosis.
      • People experiencing ventricular tachycardia (VT) or ventricular fibrillation (VF) have the greatest chance of survival.
      • People who are found in pulseless electrical activity or asystole have the lowest chance of survival.
    • Those who survive an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest may experience long-term sequelae including neurological, pulmonary, cardiac, hepatic, renal, or musculoskeletal complications.

    Bargain for one of these, I saved my dad's life with one in Skegness last year ..

    I'm thankful you were able to save your dad and sorry you had to have such a traumatic experience. I hope he is doing well now. ♥️

    It staggers me that supermarkets don’t have these as a mandatory requirement. Poor employee died in our local one a couple of weeks back despite the best efforts of people performing CPR. Asked the manager where the AED was as it would make the difference, “We don’t have one…” Ambulance was there within 5-10 minutes but couldn’t do anything. But with an AED…

    Number of Sainsbury’s in the UK - 1431. Profit - £300M+. Cost to supply every store with an AED - Less that £1.5M…

    Where is the profit in that?

    Seems like a brilliant piece of equipment at an "affordable" price.

    Some extra clarification/information would be helpful regarding the battery though.

    It states "The battery is disposable, LiMnO2 Non-rechargeable, with 2 years shelf life, and 5 years standby life."

    No information on cost/availability of replacement batteries. It says disposable battery so one would presume it's not a one time use only item.

    Also "2 years shelf life, and 5 years standby life" ummm huh?
    care to explain/expand/differentiate?
    If it only has a 2 year shelf life how can it have a 5 year standby life? Plus will it have the manufactured date so you even know when the 2 year shelf life started?

    Edit: Replacement/spare batteries available at about £200 incl vat
    Cleverly the top handle of the unit is the battery & it should provide a minimum of 200 shocks.
    Conflicting information on battery shelf/standby life of 2,4 and 5 years.

    Spare/replacement pads with 2 year shelf life £66.83 incl vat

    I would assume 2 years shelf life means the battery has to be sold withing 2 years of being produced. But once the battery is activated it lasts for 5 years from that point? (Like pulling the paper tab out of a device with a button battery).

    I'm First Aid trained and know how to use one of these. If I were able, I would have one in my car at all times. But the cost is way out of my reach

    Not sure I'd use Amazon to buy this. It's literally a life or death and Amazon has 0 QC that you are getting a legit product.

    You really think there's a large market in fake defibrillators?

    We have similar units at work, if stored/mounted outside the boxes are expensive as they contain a small heater. Without the heater the batteries expire very quickly over winter months
