A military AED program can help service personnel with having heart defibrillators available at installations and in the field. Rapid defibrillation with an AED, a medical device effective in treating Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA), is crucial. The Cardiac Science portable AED is Rescue Ready for immediate use by military service members.

Mission-Ready Military AED Solutions

When a life is on the line:

Without an AED, even medically trained military personnel can't help a soldier in cardiac arrest on a military mission in the field with no immediate access to emergency services. Protecting soldiers on the base is also your responsibility. It’s imperative you have an automated external defibrillator (AED) on hand.

When seconds count:

In cases of SCA, resuscitation without immediate shock from an AED is exceptionally rare. Using an AED within one minute of collapse raises the survival rate to 90 percent. Resuscitation rates decline 7-10 percent every minute thereafter. In the field or at an installation, it's critical to have an AED to use when SCA occurs.

When safety is paramount:

RescueCoach voice prompts, a rugged design, and an industry-leading 7-year warranty make the Cardiac Science Powerheart AED the choice for military groups and units. We have more than 20,000 AED programs deployed globally for customers including the Army National Guard, the Air National Guard, the U.S. Air Force, the U.S. Coast Guard, the U.S. Marine Corps, and the U.S. Navy.
