Imagine what would happen if an AED malfunctioned at the critical moment? This could happen for any number of reasons—software problems, battery malfunctions, and other defects. But with the PlusTrac™ AED Program Management System—a resilient interactive, web-based platform—you can cost-effectively and reliably manage and maintain your AEDs with these PlusTrac™ management programs ensuring they are ready for the rescue.
AEDs, once installed, can go unused for months or even years, which is why many agencies require routine inspection of AED devices. PlusTrac™ has built-in email alerts and notifications sent 90/60/30 days prior to an expiration of pads, batteries, and responders, so you can be sure your AED is ready to be used in an emergency.
Can you state with certainty the current status of all of your AEDs? We offer real-time reporting from your PlusTrac™ dashboard so you can access quick updates on your program compliance. With a large selection of customizable reports available for download or scheduled for automatic delivery, you are always up to date on the status of your AED program.
AEDs are medical devices intended for use by non-medical professionals. As such, there is some concern around their proper use in an emergency. PlusTrac™ provides training to make sure you are ready to respond in the best way possible in the event of SCA; and we assist with post-use reporting. PlusTrac™ also provides you with a doctor to oversee usage of your AEDs—another program requirement.
What happens when you call 911 to a cardiac arrest emergency? Would they know that you have an AED and where it’s kept? PlusTrac™ takes the guesswork out of SCA emergency responses by providing your local EMS agencies with information about your AEDs so they are able to manage a rescue properly.
Unfortunately, the use of an AED does not guarantee a patient’s survival. In fact, it is necessary to administer a shock to a patient in only 50% of cardiac arrest emergencies. Being able to produce documentation that proves you did everything you could for the patient, will ensure your protection under Good Samaritan laws.
Volunteer responders come and go, certifications expire, and laws change. AED programs have many moving parts that from time-to-time need to be reviewed and evaluated. If you choose to have a dedicated account manager, he or she will schedule routine audits and notify you of any changes affecting your program.
