Usability study of the CU Medical "i-PAD" AED was conducted to validate the usability of the device, primarily focused on the trained user as well as the utility of the training material. Comparing these results of the trained participants to those obtained by Callejas et al. (2004), who studied video-trained users of two commercially available Philips AEDs (FR2 and HS1) using a male manikin only, the participants in this study were more successful (100% vs. 85.7%-FR2 vs. 88.9%-HS1) and faster to shock (58.5s-i-PAD vs. 91s-FR2 vs. 90s-HS1). While the focus of this study was on validating ease of use for trained bystanders, the results of the untrained condition showed that, from a usability perspective, these devices perform as well as any other AEDs already approved and available for purchase for untrained bystander use, as evidenced by the comparison to various published research results.

Purpose: This study was to examine public access defibrillator (PAD) deployment on some golf courses and to analyze automatic external defibrillators (AEDs) demand by appropriate distance. Research design, data, and methodology: We conducted telephone interview on 124 golf courses in Gyeonggi and Gangwon province in South Korea. The area within 3 minutes by 3 minutes for retrieval and 1 minute for shock and 1.5 minutes by the American Heart Association (AHA)recommendation for community AED placement were calculated as 3.14×162㎡ and 3.14×100㎡. Results: The average area was 1,811,481.8㎡, and 29 (42.7%) in below 999,999㎡, 75 (60.5%) in 1,000,000 to 1,999,999㎡, 12 (9.7%) in 2,000,000 to 2,999,999㎡ took up. The average retrieval time was 161.8 seconds, and 5 (4.1%) in below 90 seconds, 10 (8.0%) in 91 to 180 seconds took up a small part. AED demands according to 3 and 1.5 retrieval minutes were 2,602 and 6,986 respectively. Average AED demands per golf course were 21.0 and 56.3 respectively on 124 golf courses. Conclusions: The numbers of AED needed in South Korean golf course were 5,880 to 15,764. To ensure defibrillation on the golf courses, the supply and distribution of AEDs should be strengthened.

59세의 기왕력 및 가족력에 특이사항이 없는 남자가 가슴통증을 호소하다 의식을 잃고 쓰러지자 이를 목격한 가족이 119에 신고하였다. 응급의료상담원의 도움에 의해 목격자가 심폐소생술을 시행하였고 거주 중인 아파트에 설치된 자동심장충격기를 이용하여 제세동 1회를 시행하였다. 이후 도착한 119구급대에 의해 제세동 2회 실시 후 자발순환회복되어 인근 응급의료센터로 이송되었으며, 저체온 치료 15일 후 대퇴수행분류 1점으로 퇴원하였다. 현재 우리나라의 응급의료전환상담원 도움에 의한 목격자 심폐소생술 및 제세동의 시행은 시작 단계이지만 본 증례를 통해 충분한 효과를 볼 수 있다고 판단되며, 이에 따라 응급의료전화상담원의 적극적인 자동심장충격기 사용 안내와 그에 맞는 체계적인 교육이 필요하다. 특히 훈련받지 않는 목격자의 자동심장충격기의 사용을 도울 수 있고, 119구급대가 현장까지의 반응시간이 지연되는 원거리 지역에서 중요한 의미를 가질 것으로 사료된다. 또한 우리나라 PAD 프로그램의 양적인 보급뿐만 아니라 목격자의 접근성을 높일 수 있는 방안이 될 것이다.
