Are Your AEDs Tested, Maintained, and Ready to Save Lives?
When in standby (i.e., the battery is installed), the AED performs many maintenance activities itself. These include daily weekly, and monthly self-tests of respectively increasing detail to help verify readiness for use. The defibrillator's extensive automatic self-test features eliminate the need for any manual test, calibration, or energy verification.
How Often Does an AED Need to Be Inspected?
The frequency at which an AED needs to be inspected can vary depending on the manufacturer’s recommendations and local regulations. In general, AED manufacturers are likely to recommend the following frequency for these inspections.
​
-
Daily,check the status indicator to verify that the device has passed its latest self-test and is therefore ready for use.
-
Monthly, check supplies and accessories for damage and expiration dating.
​
This recommendation is intended to address a wide range of user situations. Inspection at different frequency intervals may be appropriate, depending upon the environment in which the defibrillator is used. It’s also important to keep the AED in a secure and accessible location.
It’s recommended to do an annual inspection by a qualified professional, which includes a more thorough check of the device including all the electrical and mechanical components.
