IMPLEMENTATION CONSIDERATIONS
Check with your local health department to see if there are any national or local
requirements about owning and using a defibrillator. The OnSite AED is one
part of a well-designed emergency response plan. Recognized resuscitation
councils recommend that emergency response plans include physician oversight
and training in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
Several national and local organizations offer combined CPR/AED training.
Philips recommends that you train on the device you will be using. Contact your
Philips representative for information, or visit us online at www.philips.com/
AEDservices to learn about certified training and web-based refresher training
(offered in select areas) available through Philips AED Services.
NOTE: Training accessories are available for practicing use of the AED. See
Appendix A for information.
FOR MORE INFORMATION
Contact your local Philips representative for additional information about the
OnSite. We will be happy to answer any questions you may have and to provide
you with copies of the clinical summaries of several key studies using Philips
automated external defibrillators.
