Pulsepoint Respond App Empower Everyday Citizens “Sudden Cardiac Arrest is not just a job for emergency responders but rather a community-based issue that requires a community-based response.” – International Association of Fire Chiefs “In no other medical situation is there such a vital reliance on the community.” You know the difference early CPR and defibrillation can make in a Sudden Cardiac Arrest event. Fifty-seven percent of U.S. adults say they’ve had CPR training, and most would be willing to use CPR or an AED to help save a stranger’s life. Yet only 11% say they’ve used CPR in an actual emergency—that’s a number we can increase together. When that life-threatening call comes in emergency responders will be ready. But what if someone was already at the scene, applying lifesaving CPR and defibrillation until they arrive? With PulsePoint, the dispatch center immediately alerts CPR-trained individuals about nearby cardiac arrest events through the free PulsePoint Respond mobile app, and also lets them know the location of the closest AEDs. More Details PulsePoint AED App Get the app. Locate AEDs. Help Save lives. When CPR-trained individuals receive an alert from PulsePoint Respond, it tells them not only where a cardiac arrest event is happening, but also where they can find the nearest AED. But often, data on AED locations can be missing, inaccurate, or simply not detailed enough to make the devices easy to find in an emergency. That’s where the PulsePoint AED app comes in. With the free PulsePoint AED app, citizens can help even before a life is in danger by easily identifying publicly accessible AEDs throughout the community. Users place the AED location on a map, add business and descriptor information and submit photos of the AED in context of its environment. Agencies receive this information for review and verification. Instead of asking the caller if there is an AED available, dispatch center staff can now inform callers of nearby lifesaving devices.
