AEDs in Schools

Philips HeartStart AEDs are designed to pull the stressed lay responder through

Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) is the leading cause of sudden death in young athletes accounting for approximately 75% of cases¹. Not only was Philips was the first company to introduce a pediatric defibrillation capability, but it also released the patent so that all AEDs could protect children. It was one of the best decisions Philips ever made. Choose HeartStart - it may be your best decision too.


Tragically, cardiac arrest strikes thousands of children each year. No wonder some of the largest school districts have installed HeartStart AEDs.

In addition to the student body, colleges and universities also serve as a workplace and community gathering place, so placing AEDs there makes sense.
