Defibrillators
Sudden Cardiac Arrest is a leading cause of death globally. Response time is critical for survival. Increase the chance of survival from sudden cardiac arrest by up to 40%. Each year more than 1000 New Zealanders will suffer a heart attack outside of hospital. Many of these people have no prior symptoms and get no warning. Less than 8% will survive if they do not receive immediate treatment. Performing CPR is not always enough to prevent death.

The Benefits Of an Onsite Defibrilator
Sudden Cardiac Arrest is a leading cause of death globally. Response time is critical for survival. Increase the chance of survival from sudden cardiac arrest by up to 40%.
Each year more than 1000 New Zealanders will suffer a heart attack outside of hospital. Many of these people have no prior symptoms and get no warning. Less than 8% will survive if they do not receive immediate treatment. Performing CPR is not always enough to prevent death.
The required solution is to provide not only an appropriate, cost effective, reliable defibrillator, but the necessary training and support for its use.
With Sudden Cardiac Arrest occurring anywhere at any time, workplaces need to be equipped to handle emergencies. That is why Worksafe NZ legislation recommends that workplaces have an AED on site. along with first aid kits and appropriate first aid training.
- 6 people a day have a cardiac arrest
- 76% receive on scene bystander CPR
- 5% have a public access AED used in the rescue
- Average ambulance response time - 5 minutes urban areas - 8 minutes rural areas
- 95% of events were co-responded to by Fire and Emergency
- 22% had a pulse on arrival to hospital
- 11% of patients survived
If we can increase the 5% of people that were defibrillated on scene, then the 11% of people that survived will increase!!
What is an AED?
An AED is an Automated External Defibrillator. AED's are portable machines that can automatically diagnose irregular heartbeats and treat through electrical shock. CPR alone cannot jump start the heart back into a regular heart rhythm. CPR just sustains life before a defibrillator can be located.
Buy an AED
MediTrain Otago sell AED's to fit your workplace. To purchase, there is a one off cost of the unit, and included in this cost is;
- staff training in one easy session
- yearly checks on the unit to check all is going well and parts do not need to be replaced
Hire an AED
Do you have an upcoming event, seasonal sports team or a short term project that you require an AED for? Why purchase one when you can hire one short or long term.
AED’s can be hired for a week, monthly, 6 monthly or on a 1 or 2 year term. Bond required on terms less than 1 year.
