The ZOLL AED 3^® Defibrillator packages advanced technology into a device that is brilliantly simple to use. This AED leads the way with Real CPR Help^® technology, which assesses the rate and depth of chest compressions and delivers real-time visual and auditory feedback to guide users and ensure AHA-compliant CPR. The innovative, intuitive design and enhanced features of ZOLL AED 3 gives users both the confidence and the knowledge needed to treat sudden cardiac arrest (SCA).

At 8 seconds with a fresh battery, the AED 3 is among the fastest at delivering a shock after chest compressions stop. Research shows that minimizing time to shock after the CPR cycle ends may improve survival. With one-step Uni-padz electrodes that work on both adult and child patients, the Zoll AED 3 is ideal for those who wish to have greater control of the situation in the case of a sudden cardiac arrest (SCA).

How it works:

• The CPR Uni-padz Electrodes sense and report the motion of rescuers' chest compressions to the AED 3
• During an adult rescue, audio and text prompts let rescuers know when to "push harder" and when they are doing "Good compressions."
• The compression depth bar gauge shows rescuers the depth of each compression in real time
• The metronome detects compressions and encourages rescuers to compress at a rate of at least 100 compressions per minute
