AED

An AED can assist in CPR.

AED stands for Automated External Defibrillator. The AED can "reset" the heart in the event of cardiac fibrillation. The heart then trembles and no longer pumps blood. The reset can remedy this, allowing the heart to beat normally again. If resuscitation is performed within 6 minutes and an AED can be used, the victim's chances of survival increase.
Fortunately, more and more companies, sports clubs, and individuals/local residents are purchasing AEDs, and many people are taking CPR courses.

You can register your AED withHartslagNu. They will then include the AED in the national AED network. Citizen responders can see the AEDs in their area in the app. They can pick one up and start CPR as quickly as possible.
