Why should I buy a defibrillator for home?

All of us gasped in astonishment as we watched our favorite TV doctor yell "Clear!" and shock a patient back to life. When a doctor uses a defibrillator, which is depicted in those scenes, he or she straps paddles to the patient's chest and shocks the heart with electricity. You might be surprised to learn that these gadgets can also be bought online and kept at home for emergencies. Examine the details listed below to decide if you ought to purchase an at-home defibrillator.

What is an at-home defibrillator?

When a person is experiencing a heart attack or another life-threatening situation that requires defibrillation, a device called a defibrillator is used to shock the heart rhythm back to normal (cardiac arrest). The computerized medical device known as an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) can be used to monitor heart rate, spot irregularities, and alert the user when a shock is required.

You should buy an AED if you have ever had a heart attack, are at risk of having one, have high blood pressure, or have any type of heart disease. Your life might be saved by this gadget.

How to Purchase a Defibrillator for Your Home

The Philips HeartStart Home Defibrillator is the only AED currently permitted for use at home without a prescription by the Regulatory authorities. When treating a person experiencing cardiac arrest, this device has life guidance features that give you step-by-step voice instructions to help you through a perplexing and difficult situation. The Phillips AED costs around $1,200 and is available from Walmart and Amazon, to name a couple. There is no need for a prescription for this device because it is regarded as an over-the-counter item.

It's crucial to always have quick access to a defibrillator at home or when needed! 80% of cardiac arrests in the UK take place at home, according to statistics from non-hospital settings! Without CPR and defibrillation, a person's chances of survival decrease by 7–10% per minute when their heart stops pumping blood. There has never been a more crucial time to get ready for an emergency, especially as more people choose to work from home.

Anyone can use the Lifesaver interactive app to learn CPR for free. It's a simple skill. It's easy to use an automated external defibrillator. Simply turn it on and heed the voice and visual cues.
