What is an AED Machine?

An automated external defibrillator (AED) is a portable, life-saving medical device used to treat sudden cardiac arrest. Designed to be easy-to-use by the general public with little to no medical training, an AED machine can analyze a heart’s rhythm and, if necessary, deliver a controlled electrical shock (or defibrillation) to the heart to allow the heart to resume its normal beating pattern.

In the event of a cardiac emergency, an AED may save your life. Determine which device may be right for you with our AED buyer’s guide.
