Staff recommends replacing six of the eight automated external defibrillators (AEDs) the
City currently has in its inventory and deployed at various high traffic facilities. An AED
is used to help those experiencing sudden cardiac arrest. It's a sophisticated, yet easy -
to -use, medical device that can analyze the heart's rhythm and, if necessary, deliver an
electrical shock, or defibrillation, to help the heart re-establish an effective rhythm.
Five of the units are past the recommended 10 year service life and the City Hall AEDs
are also no longer supported by the manufacturer. The other unit is located at the
Aquatic Center and while close to its service life, the Fire Department recommends
replacing it now because it is not a standardized Zoll AED. Staff will keep this unit as a
backup.
Zoll is currently on contract with Riverside County Fire Department as a sole source
vendor. Having a single AED type insures easier access to replacement parts (pads and
batteries) and more importantly, simplifies the training/use, increasing the chance of a
successful defibrillation.
Fiscal Analvsis
The purchase price for six new AEDs is approximately $8,200, and is budgeted this
fiscal year, no appropriation is required.

Re: Replacement of six City owned Automatic External Defibrillators (AED)
PROPOSAL:
Replace six of the eight City owned FR2 and FRX AED's with the Riverside County Fire Standard
Zoll AED Plus.
Indian Wells
BACKGROUND:
Indio
The City of Palm Desert owns and maintains eight AED's that are located in public spaces throughout
Jurupa valley
the City. Five of the eight AED's are past the manufactures recommended life span of 10 years. In
addition to being outside of the manufactures recommended life span, these AED's have electrode pads
Lake Elsinore
and batteries that are set to expire in the next 6 — 8 months. The manufacturer has discontinued support
La Quinta
for the FR2 AED's, and batteries are no longer being produced.
Menifee RECOMMENDATION:
Moreno valley
Fire recommends that the City replace six of their eight FR2 and FRX AED's (located in Table 1
below) with the Riverside County Fire Standard, Zoll AED Plus. This manufacturer and AED model
Norco
are currently on contract with Riverside County Fire.
Palm Desert
Having one AED deployed throughout the entire Fire Department Contract decreases cost and
Perris
improves efficiency. Because they are a contracted vendor, parts are easily and readily accessible at
discounted pricing. Pads and batteries can be purchased through our contracts and easily billed back to
Rancho Mirage
the City. Lastly, having one AED model simplifies the instruction and use of the AED and increases
the chances of early and successful defibrillation.
