Attachment I
AUTOMATIC EXTERNAL DEFIBRILLATOR PROGRAM
Each year 465,000 people in the United States suffer from Sudden Cardiac
Arrest (SCA). Less than 5% of these victims will survive without early
defibrillation. Survival rates can be 70% higher if a defibrillator shock is
delivered within the first 3 minutes after the onset of SCA. Automatic External
Defibrillators (AEDs) are portable machines that can be used by trained lay
rescuers. Until recently, there were concerns about operator's personal
liability. State legislative changes have addressed this issue.
An adhoc committee including: Guadalupe Sanchez, Library; Ray Allen, Police
Department; Miguel Diaz, Parks & Recreation; Paul Desrochers, CDC; John
Cole, PW/Eng.; Don Condon, Fire Department and Kassia Kossyta, Risk
Management met to explore installing (AEDs) at city locations. After reviewing
three years of Fire Department responses to city sites the Committee
recommended placing AEDs at 13 locations (see Attachment II). State law
requires at least one trained operator for every five AEDs. The Committee
recommends for each AED installed to have at least one employee trained as a
responder. The Fire Department will provide the state mandated monthly
equipment and battery check. The new library design will incorporate AEDs.
The City of San Diego is sponsoring San Diego Project Heart Beat a campaign
promoting the use of AEDs throughout the county. They contracted with
Cardiac Science to provide equipment at $2,305/unit. They provide state
required physician medical oversight, training, certification, recordkeeping
and data collection for $50-$100/unit in annual oversight fees. Additional
costs include alarmed wall mounted storage cases $269/unit; training classes
$40/employee, a required annual one hour refresher class and $100 for donor
plaques.
The Purchasing Agent has reviewed the City of San Diego bid process with
Cardiac Science for AEDs. Since it complied with Section 11 of Purchasing
Ordinance # 1480 dealing with competitive bidding, National City can
piggyback on Project Heart Beat's bid to obtain AEDs.
Community support for this program is strong. Paradise Valley Hospital has
offered to donate three AEDs and provide training classes. The National City
Lions Club has volunteered to provide two units and cases. The Commuinity
Development Commission has agreed to fund four units, and the Fire
Department and City Managers' Office will each supply two units. Risk
Management will fund three storage cases, the supervision costs and the
donor plaques. A budget outline is described in Attachment II.
