How to Use the Heart+ResQ™ NT-381.C AED (South Korea) | Wellbeing

Steps to Operate the NT-381.C AED

Step 1: Preparation

• Locate the AED: The defibrillator can typically be found in cabinets marked with a heart and lightning bolt symbol.

• Check the Environment: Before using the AED, ensure the victim is not lying in a wet area (puddle) or on a conductive metal surface.

Step 2: Attach AED Electrode Pads

• Remove Accessories: Remove any electronic devices such as mobile phones or smartwatches from the victim's body.

• Apply Pads: Expose the victim's chest and wipe it dry. Peel and attach the electrode pads in the correct positions:

  • Place one pad on the upper right chest, directly below the collarbone.

  • Place the other pad on the left side of the rib cage (lower left side).

• Power On: Turn on the machine and strictly follow the voice prompts.

Step 3: Analyze and Follow Instructions

• Stand Clear: Ensure no one is touching the victim while the machine analyzes the heart rhythm.

• If Shock is Advised: If the Shock Button (indicated by a flashing lightning bolt/heart icon) lights up or flashes, a shock is required. Press the Shock Button immediately. Ensure no one is touching the victim during the shock delivery.

• If No Shock is Advised: If the Shock Button does not flash, no shock is needed. Immediately proceed with Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) as guided by the machine's metronome/voice prompts.

Step 4: Continue Care

• Maintain the CPR/Analysis cycle until the victim regains consciousness or emergency medical personnel arrive and take over.
