  • Cardiac Science AED Device Correction Notice Issued
    March 13, 2010
    Cardiac Science has determined certain automated external defibrillators (AEDs) manufactured between August 2003 and August 2009 may experience a rare product issue. These AEDs have resistors which may fail and the failure will not be detected by the AEDs’ periodic self-tests. If the issue were to occur, the AED may not be able to deliver therapy during a rescue attempt and may affect resuscitation of the patient.
