Empowering Safety On the Go: Remote Monitoring for Mobile AEDs

When sudden cardiac arrest strikes, every second is critical. For each minute that passes without intervention, the chance of survival plummets 10%. Although CPR can sustain blood flow to the brain, only a shock from an AED can restore a normal heart rhythm and save a life.
The best AED is the one closest to the victim, as immediate deployment significantly enhances survival chances. However, with an average EMS response time of seven to 14 minutes, people working in remote or high-risk areas cannot afford to wait.
Sudden cardiac arrest can be triggered by various factors, including heatstroke, heart attack, drowning, chest trauma and heart conditions. Workers in certain jobs and locations are at heightened risk, necessitating reliable, onsite AEDs.
However, having an AED at a jobsite isn’t just a simple box to check off for compliance. As with all AED programs, mobile AEDs require consistent maintenance and monitoring to ensure they’re always ready for use, a task that can be both challenging and costly.
Revolutionizing AED maintenance with ScoutRMS MINI
Introducing ScoutRMS MINI by RescueStat – a game-changer in AED maintenance and monitoring for mobile units. ScoutRMS MINI conducts daily readiness checks and reports the status using cellular signals. With the ScoutRMS Hub, you can monitor your AED’s status from anywhere, right in the palm of your hand.
ScoutRMS MINI boasts a disposable, replaceable battery that lasts for years, eliminating downtime for your AED fleet. Compatible with all AED models, ScoutRMS MINI allows you to upgrade your current program without investing in new devices.
The advantages of ScoutRMS MINI
By implementing ScoutRMS MINI, you save valuable time and resources. Manual inspections of AEDs are resource-intensive and costly, relying on physical checks that don’t scale effectively. As the number of AEDs increases, so do the associated costs of inspections. Consider these three types of costs involved in manual inspections:
Variable costs: Labor and transportation expenses that rise with each additional AED
Fixed costs: As inspection capacity is maxed out, additional personnel and vehicles become necessary
Opportunity costs: Potential work that could be accomplished if resources weren’t diverted to inspections
ScoutRMS MINI comes in two versatile case types:
Custom Monitored Hard Case:
- IP67 rated: waterproof, dustproof and stackable
- Durable against water, impact, dust and other threats
- Highly visible “AED Inside” universal label
