Arizona Emergency Medicine Research Center, University of Arizona Department of Emergency Medicine, Tucson, AZ, USA.
Study Objective: Automated external defibrillators are essential for treatment of cardiac arrest by lay rescuers and must determine when to shock and if they are functioning correctly. We seek to characterize automated external defibrillator failures reported to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and whether battery failures are properly detected by automated external defibrillators.
Methods: FDA adverse event reports are catalogued in the Manufacturer and User Device Experience (MAUDE) database.
