AEDBoth kit has an AED. These are the same as the ones you might see at local train stations, leisure centre, town, morrisons etc - an AED is used for patients in cardiac arrest (the heart has stopped working effectively) the pads that are placed on the chest analyse the rhythm of the heart. When the AED recognises a shockable rhythm it will ask you press the shock button. The AED job is to shock the heart back into a normal rhythm.
