Welcome to the First Aid Show: Routine Checks for Your AED Unit
In today’s episode, we cover the essential steps for maintaining your Automated External Defibrillator (AED) to ensure it's always ready for an emergency.
Regular AED Maintenance
Visual Inspection
- Exterior Check: Begin by examining the AED's casing for any signs of damage like scuffs or marks, which could indicate mishandling or drops.
- Carry Handle & Zip: Ensure the carry handle and the zip are intact and functional.
- Pad Storage Area: Inspect the area where pads are stored for any damage that might affect their deployment.
Pad and Battery Checks
- Inspect Pads: Carefully remove the pads to check for any creases, cuts, or other damages. Verify the expiry date is still valid.
- Battery Status: Check the battery indicator on the AED’s display to ensure it's fully charged and operational.
Operational Test
- Function Test: Turn on the AED to ensure it powers up correctly. Listen for clear audio instructions and check that all indicator lights function as expected.
- System Shutdown: After testing, shut down the system properly to ensure it's set to be ready for the next use.
Settings Verification
- Mode Settings: Confirm the AED is set to adult mode unless specifically required otherwise. Adjust if necessary.
Storage and Environment
- Proper Storage: Store the AED in a location that adheres to the recommended temperature guidelines to avoid damage to the battery and pads. Consider a heated cabinet if stored outside.
Maintenance Documentation
- Tracking Maintenance: Keep a record either digitally on your computer or on a chart displayed near the storage area. Regularly update this as you check the AED.
- Utilize Reminders: Register your AED on platforms like 'The Circuit' to receive maintenance reminders and ensure compliance with safety checks.
Conclusion
Proper and regular checks of your AED unit are crucial to ensure it functions flawlessly in an emergency. By following these guidelines, you can maintain your AED's readiness and extend its service life. Tune in next time for more tips and training from the First Aid Show!
