How to Use a Defibrillator (AED) - First Aid Training - St John Ambulance

In Australia they are becoming more and more accessible and it will be law by 2025 for many sports centres, shopping centres and such to have them.
Places have plenty of time to comply with these new regulations.
Bit annoyed the presenter did NOT advise and make perfectly clear which country he was in when giving the emergency number to call as they should realise this will go all over the world.
In Australia phone "000" for emergency assistance.
What a fantastic idea, I just hope the idiots don't steal or vandalise them.

Ive always wondered the difference between 999 and 112

I've seen several instructions and manufacturer pages that insist an AED cannot restart a heart once it has stopped - that it only works on ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia. The first line in this video is that it restarts the heart that has stopped in a cardiac arrest. If that statement is not true, it is a dangerous one to make. Chest compressions and not an AED would seem appropriate for a stopped heart, presuming the person isn't beyond saving. It's only when the heart is fluttering (fibrillation or tachycardia) that the AED will reset the inappropriate and uncoordinated existing rhythm. Either that, or some AED units do restart a stopped heart and others only reset the rhythm... in which case it seems critically important for everyone to know which is which and perhaps they should be color-coordinated, too?? FWIW, I'm not an authority by any stretch... just someone who's been trying to learn and has encountered an apparent difference in understanding what an AED is actually able to do.

I was in exam and I can't used an AED because I don't know how to used. Can you advice me how to used it

AED Saves Lives. ❤

That chest compression was shitty at best- an EMT😂

جزاك الله خيرا

Legit got an ad. Imagine looking up a tutorial to save a life only for that to happen

Technological advances is impressive ❤

just got cpr certified and scheduling a skill test. this helps reinforce the knowledge

Professor Pantridge from Co.Down, Northern Ireland, invented the mobile defibrillator and his invention has saved countless lives all over the world. His work continues to save lives to this day and yet he does not get the credit, appreciation and acknowledgement he deserves. He was a true hero. ❤

I am sorry to say, but I had to turn on the subtitles. Please the next time you get someone to do a video, make sure that they can speak English in a clear manner.

Can the AED be used if the asi batery indicator is flashing red. We have the lufeline aed.

I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. (Luke 13:5)
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. (Matthew 7:13-14)
And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. (Revelation of John 20:15)

Good video

bare skin? what if they're female? do we have to take off their.....

Why are there ads on this video🤣🤣🤣🤣 imagine you’re trying to save someone’s life but you have to watch a Volvo drive through some mountains first.

Thank you for your videos. They are very useful for the average small business person.

✌️👍🏽👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

This seems to be for a man. There is no instruction where to place your hands for a woman

Does anyone know if the 999 call is free, haven’t got any minutes left and unhappy about spending cash on a stranger who might die. Casualty is currently unresponsive and not breathing. Time 10.04 pm.

не этот хачикян когда-то увидел беде и стал пить оттуда воду???

Here after damar hamlin

This is an example of how important the internet can be. Thanks for the post!

Had to do cpr once on an older guy.
It's absolutely horrible to see a dead person on the floor.

Did Ghosts send anyone else here to see if defibrillator how to videos do indeed have ads?

Imagine the person going into cardiac arrest has a family member or loved one in the ambulance, and the EMTs start watching this video.

What if you are alone with the person having a cardiac arest just using cpr without aed?

Is it okay if we take some screenshots from these tutorials for our app dev ?

I know that sometimes when someone’s heart stops doctors or nurses give epinephrine (artificial adrenaline) and don’t shock the patient at all because it wouldn’t help. So what I want to know is, is it dangerous to shock someone who wouldn’t be treated like that in a hospital setting?

This lesson can save a life

Great news and brill

'Ax someome' .... That might not help.

My wife has a internal defibrillator i have a question if she was in town and no one knew she had one implanted and someone used a defibrillator on her what would happen.

This is really useful because more people than ever are having heart attacks. The numbers have gone up a lot. Who knows what could be causing it??? Probably global warming. Or Putin.

very useful thank u

999/112? Wtf...

I watched this video as I was worried for a friend I’m always around who has a heart condition and had a minor heart attack yesterday and recovered very fast

Thank You so much!!

If it was a woman, should the clothes should be taken off even the bra?

Thank you! ♥️

As someone who had a cardiac arrest while driving right in front of an ambulance, everyone should be taught how to use these live saving devices. Equally important, these AED's should be widely available within larger shops, supermarkets etc. I was in a coma for 2.5 weeks and that was with the ambulance right in front of me when I died. These devices will save lives, we just need them readily available. Maybe a sign in the Windows of premises which have them etc would help save some lives. Speed is essential to both help save the live, and as important, minimise lack of oxygen to the brain so brain damage is minimal. You will have a degree of brain damage with a cardiac arrest, it's called cerebral hypoxia, impossible not to because the heart has stopped pumping blood and oxygen but fast CPR or AED use will minimise damage.

Also note there is a big difference between a heart attack and a cardiac arrest. A cardiac arrest is simple, your dead within seconds. A heart attack means your heart has a critical problem but is working in some form. Learning CPR and using AEDs should be mandatory in secondary education.

Nice video, I was scanning my sensor before with reader. For the last few months, I have been using Nightrider cgm with my Libre which helps me to monitor glucose readings on phone screen without needing to scan. it's great!

Excelente

Good video

Here in new Zealand its 111

These videos should NOT have aids or any thing

Good presentation, nicely done.
