One of the most important responsibilities that any employer has is to look after the well being of their staff. In order to ensure that employees are completely protected at all times, especially in an industrial environment where accidents can happen. In the event that a staff member suffers from a heart attack or similar condition, having the appropriate equipment in place is important. Zoll defibrillators are among the best quality of these essential devices, and are vital in the modern world.

The Zoll story began back in 1953 when the founder of the company, Doctor Paul M Zoll MD devised an all new method of internal cardiac pacing. Over the next few years, the Zoll Corporation began to experiment with external pacing systems in the form of the first Zoll defibrillator.

A machine like the Zoll defibrillator works to restart the natural rhythm of a heart that is in shock or failing through the administration of an electric shock. This treatment stabilizes the heart, and gets it working properly once more. Provided that the shock is administered as promptly as possible, survival rates are much higher.

The concept of the Zoll defibrillator was refined over the next 30 years, and became an increasingly versatile and powerful. Gradual changes in the system to make it a more usable tool for medical professionals resulted in the creation of the automated external defibrillator – a device that could be deployed by any suitably trained user.

One of the most important aspects of helping a patient with heart problems is to give treatment as quickly as possible. The faster a person receives treatment for their heart problem, the higher the likelihood of their survival. In the past, many people who might otherwise have survived a heart attack died because of the time it took to administer the shock. The delay in getting the patient to hospital in order to receive defibrillation treatment meant that the survival rate was lower than it could be. With an automated system that had been programmed to deliver the shock at a precisely measured level, anyone with basic training would be able to carry out the treatment.

Since the introduction of the first Zoll automated external defibrillator, the company has now developed a comprehensive range of different products to meet all the different needs of their customers.

The latest model in the Zoll defibrillator line is the AED-1, which is available now from Red Hill Supply. The AED-1 has been developed specially to provide additional feedback to users that will ensure that they are able to give the most effective treatment to anyone who suffers a case of sudden cardiac arrest.

The most important thing for anyone who is required to give CPR to consider is that they give the appropriate treatment. There is not always the need for administering a shock to achieve defibrillation, and under most circumstances, chest compressions will provide enough support to help the patient. This factor has been incorporated into the design of the AED-1 Zoll defibrillator.

Unlike many competing products, the AED-1 has been created to provide complete support throughout the CPR process. As the treatment is delivered, the AED-1 Zoll Defibrillator will give feedback about the way the chest compressions are being given, and also let the user know what they should do.

Heart monitoring is carried out throughout the procedure, and the user will be able to determine the best possible way to proceed with carrying out the CPR. Thanks to the ability of the Zoll Defibrillator to ensure the best possible treatment of any patient who has had a sudden cardiac arrest, for whatever reason, and maximize their chances of surviving and making a full recovery with time.
