Device type (GMDN): Non-rechargeable public automated external defibrillator

A portable electronic device designed to automatically detect cardiac arrhythmias (ventricular fibrillation/pulseless ventricular tachycardia) in a sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) patient, after which it automatically activates defibrillation of the heart through application of electrical shocks to the chest surface. The device is placed in conspicuous public locations and is intended to be applied to the patient by a layperson. It consists of an external pulse generator (EPG) with a cardiac rhythm recognition system and a pair of skin-adhesive electrodes to monitor the rhythm and deliver the shocks; it also includes a non-rechargeable battery for energy.
