The Role of Defibrillation Pads in Sudden Cardiac Arrest Emergencies
Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) unexpectedly happens to patients anytime, anywhere. This condition is triggered by an electrical malfunction in the heart which leads to arrhythmia or irregular heartbeats.
During SCA, the heart loses its ability to pump blood to the brain, lungs, and other organs of the body. The patient becomes unconscious and loses his or her pulse. There is a possibility that the individual may die if he or she does not receive the proper treatment within several minutes.
AEDs and defibrillation pads make it possible for first aid responders to immediately resuscitate the patient to save his or her life. Whether the responders are healthcare professionals or civilians with CPR training, they need high-quality AED equipment like AED pads that are functioning properly to provide emergency assistance to SCA victims.
The Importance of Having Defibrillation Pads
Companies, organizations, communities, and families need to have an extra set of AED pads on hand. These are some of the reasons why:
- Additional pads are vital during situations when several patients require resuscitation.
- Extra pads can come in handy when electrode pads lose their adhesive properties because of moisture exposure during medical emergencies.
- Defibrillation pads need to be replaced once they are past their shelf life.
