The Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is a highly valuable device in providing first aid to victims of sudden cardiac arrest. Although it is a medical device, it is designed so that even individuals without medical knowledge or experience can use it effectively. Wellbeing supplies genuine AED products, ensuring full manufacturer warranties while also providing first aid training support for customers.

To select the AED model that best suits the needs of your organization or business, it is essential to understand the characteristics of each AED model. Therefore, let us explore the AED NIHON 3100 in this article.

1. General Information

The AED NIHON 3100 is a product of Nihon Kohden, a Japanese corporation specializing in the development, manufacturing, sales, maintenance, and consulting of medical electronic equipment, as well as related systems and products. Nihon Kohden is also the only company in Japan that develops and manufactures biphasic AED defibrillators specifically designed for community use.

The AED NIHON 3100 is the latest AED model manufactured by Nihon Kohden. In addition to the 3100 series, the company is currently distributing the AED 2150 model. To support AED usage training, Nihon Kohden also produces the AED NIHON 3100 Trainer, specifically designed for practice and education purposes.

2. Detailed Device Information

The AED NIHON 3100 is a reliable lifesaving assistant in emergency situations. To fulfill this critical role, the device is equipped with the following technical specifications:

  • Children (under 8 years): 50–70–70 J

• Recommended compression rate: 100 compressions per minute

• ECG analysis time: less than 8 seconds (minimum 4.5 seconds)

• Time from power-on to shock: less than 15 seconds (with a new battery)

3. Key Highlights

3.1. Simple and Easy Operation

Time is critical in sudden cardiac arrest—every minute without defibrillation reduces survival rates by 7–10%. The AED NIHON 3100 is designed for rapid response with intuitive operation and clear visual and voice guidance that anyone can follow.

• Easy activation by simply opening the lid.

• Only 3 operating steps:

  1. Open the lid to power on the device.

  2. Remove the electrode pads from the package and attach them to the victim.

  3. Press the shock button when the device advises a shock.

• For children aged 1–8 years or victims weighing under 25 kg, simply switch the child mode selector on the device.

3.2. Single Electrode Pads for Both Adults and Children

Children are not simply “small adults,” and defibrillation energy levels must be adjusted accordingly. Many AED models require separate pediatric pads, which must be replaced before use—wasting precious time.

With the AED NIHON 3100, one set of electrode pads can be used for both adults and children. Users only need to slide a small switch on the device to adjust the shock energy appropriately, ensuring optimal and effective defibrillation without delay.

3.3. Optimized Rhythm Analysis – Reduced Rescue Time

The AED NIHON 3100 features continuous rhythm analysis, enabling faster detection of abnormalities. The device can analyze the victim’s heart rhythm even during CPR, while pre-charging energy before advising a shock.

This significantly reduces waiting time for shock delivery and minimizes interruptions to CPR, thereby increasing the victim’s chance of survival.

Unlike many other AED models that require rescuers to stop touching the victim during rhythm analysis, the AED NIHON 3100 overcomes this limitation through its advanced ventricular fibrillation analysis mode.

3.4. Multilingual Voice Guidance – Including Vietnamese

One common limitation of imported medical devices is language barriers. The AED NIHON 3100 eliminates this issue by supporting multiple languages, including English, Japanese, and Vietnamese.

Organizations and businesses can select and install the most suitable language based on their primary user group, making the device accessible to a wider range of users.
