Publicly accessible defibrillators or AEDs should not be utilized on an infant (birth -12 months) as the output of the device and the pads are not suited.

CPR on someone with a Pacemaker? YES!
Picture & Text about an AED. AEDs are easy to use, compact, portable & very effective. They are designed to be used by lay persons; the machines guide the operator through the process by verbal instructions & visual prompts. They are safe & will not allow a shock to be given unless the heart’s rhythm requires it. They are designed to be stored for long periods without use & require very little routine maintenance. AEDs require hardly any routine maintenance or servicing; most perform daily self-checks & display a warning if they need attention. Most AEDs currently offered for sale have a minimum life-expectancy of ten years. The batteries have a shelf-life ranging from 2-7 years & the pads are replaced once used or after 2 years.
Picture of a defibrillator & text about upkeep.
Just a few pointers about upkeep for a Defibrillator if you own one!
Defibrillators are extremely safe but don't touch the casualty while a shock is delivered!
For all casualties who are unresponsive & not breathing normally, chest compressions should be commenced immediately & continued until an AED is applied. The AED should be applied as soon as it becomes available so that a shock can be delivered if necessary.
Defibrillators can be used in wet environments
The use of AEDs by trained lay & professional responders is recommended to increase survival rates in those who have cardiac arrest 💔💔💔
Defibrillators Key factor for survival combined with CPR!
The development of AEDs has made defibrillation part of basic life support. AEDs can accurately identify the cardiac rhythm as “shockable” or “non shockable”
If a casualty with a stoma requires CPR you can use a key-ring, one way valve device over the stoma but remember to block the nose & mouth when breathing for them.
30 - 2 no matter who!
Do you know where the closest defibrillator to home is? What about where you are on the weekend or at work ? Have a look around and note where they are!
Pacemaker, CPR & Defibrillator information for Australia
Even if someone has a pacemaker, they still may require CPR and the use of a Defibrillator. Here is a little info about defibrillator pads!
Confronting but real!
Would you know what & how to help ?????
CPR mantra 'Any attempt at CPR is better than no attempt
KISS terminology for CPR & First Aid
The AIMS of the ARC
1. foster and co-ordinate the practice and teaching of resuscitation.
2. promote uniformity and standardization of resuscitation techniques.
3. act as a voluntary coordinating body.
CPR in a vehicle management
For every 1 minute there is no blood circulating through the heart 10% of the muscle will die. 😟☹️💔 Without CPR Oxygen is not circulating and we will die.
NO AIR NO LIFE
AED can be  used on a pregnant women
CPR of quality method
All rescuers should perform chest compressions for all persons who are unresponsive and not breathing normally
Rescuers should perform chest compressions for all ages at a rate of 100 to 120 compressions per minute (almost 2 compressions/second)

Defibrillators for public use
Strategically placed AED don't you think??
Keep your eyes on the lookout!
Defibrillators not a legal requirement for workplace in Australia
Knowing where the nearest Defibrillator is located when at home, work or out and about could be the difference between life & death. 
Risks for performing breaths for CPR
Do you have access to a barrier device to perform rescue breaths? It is a reasonable & sometimes essential aspect during CPR!
☎️ ➡️ 🚑 ➡️ 🏥
Chest compression standards, don't interrupt CPR to check casualty
The purpose of CPR is to temporarily maintain a circulation sufficient to preserve brain function until specialized treatment is available.
AED use & care
AED use should not be restricted to trained personnel. Allowing the use of AEDs by individuals without prior formal training can be beneficial & may be lifesaving. ☎️ ➡️ 🚑 ➡️ 🏥
AED pad placement for children
The importance of defibrillation has been well established as part of overall resuscitation, along with effective cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Here is a little more info on the placement of the pads!
Re-purposing of old phone booths for Defibrillators
Where have you 👀 one of these? ♥️🚑🇦🇺️
B-Ready First Aid info, 92% Die without CPR
Even if you don't know how to give the breaths, compressions alone is critical ASAP
B-Ready First Aid info about AED Drones
They are limited in the distance they can travel at the moment but I wonder how long it will take for these to become much more effective in Australia. 
This is pretty amazing but does not replace the initial CPR by a bystander.
Two hands for adult CPR, 30 compressions (100-120 per min) & 2 breaths if possible. Any Attempt is better than none!
CPR for a child aged approx 1-8 years of age we would use one hand, possibly with support, as seen here. 30 compression's -2 breaths (if possible) @ a rate of approx 100-120 compressions per minute. 
How to give Infant CPR, use a firm surface underneath the child, press with two fingers or your thumbs on the lower part of the sternum. 30 compressions and followed by two little puffs without tilting their head back. Keep going until there are signs of normal breathing returning or until help arrives.

CPR 30-2 no matter who! by B-Ready First Aid
CPR is best with 100-120 beats per minute, this is the ideal rate, pressing down approx 1/3 the depth of their chest on the lower half of the sternum. Not too low or they might vomit or regurgitate. Yes, you can break ribs or even have other injuries but this is deemed reasonable consequences!
