About this app

In the event of out-of-hospital cardiac-respiratory arrest (ACR), the "gold standard", defined by international guidelines, is defibrillation within 3-5 minutes of the onset of the arrest, to achieve a survival of up to 50-70%. Early defibrillation (DP) can be obtained by rescuers (First Responders) through the use of defibrillators (AED - Automatic External Defibrillator) available to the public or present on site. The guidelines also recommend the use of innovative technologies to aid the rapid deployment of responders to victims of out-of-hospital cardiac-respiratory arrest (CARR).

The main objective of this project is to use the technologies available today to immediately and automatically alert lay personnel trained in the use of AEDs, at the same time as the emergency vehicles are activated by the 118 Operations Centre, reducing thus the application time of defibrillation of ACR victims.

The app also provides, from a collaborative perspective, the possibility of participating in the system's census of AEDs present in the area with the functions: "report a new AED" and "report a problem".

For each AED, in addition to the location, it is possible to define the availability (days, times) to make its location more effective in case of emergency, and also manage information relating to maintenance deadlines, with the future objective of making it increasingly effective monitoring the presence of AEDs in the area.

Finally, the app presents a documentary section which contains links of interest, FAQs, procedures, etc.
