Sudden Cardiac Arrest is a killer in the US
Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) kills over 350,000 people every year in the U.S. alone according to the American Heart Association. In 2015, 366,807 of US deaths were caused by Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA), it affects over 1,000 people a day
That’s why medical technologies like Defibtech’s lifesaving resuscitation devices like the AED are so important to have accessible to your passengers, family, friends, staff, clients, and more. Having an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) that anyone can use in an sudden cardiac arrest situation could literally be the difference between life and death. The American heart Association calls sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) one of the most lethal public health problems in our country. Having an AED on site saves time and helps save lives

With a Defibtech AED on board, help is always within reach
In remote locations, such as on a boat or charter vessel, an ambulance is not on its way to assist, nor is there a hospital nearby. AED’s are the only treatment available for passengers or crew members that are victims of sudden cardiac arrest where every minute can be the difference between life and death. An AED provides rescuers with the knowledge and confidence they need to help save a life
