⚡ Quantity planning
How many AEDs does your facility need?
The AHA program target is simple: a responder retrieves the AED and returns to the victim in about 3 minutes, proven with a stopwatch, not a formula. The AHA publishes no square-feet-per-AED coefficient, so treat every calculator output, ours included, as a planning estimate you validate with a timed walking drill on your actual floor plan.
Survival drops with every minute of delay before defibrillation, which is why placement beats brand choice in almost every deployment.
