An Adventure with ED the AED is a fun book written to educate children about the safe and easy usage of AED's (Automated External Defibrillators') - it is the first in a series of books about first aid and other life saving skills. Fact: An estimated 456,000 people died last year from sudden cardiac death - nearly 2,000 of those were children with heart defects that had not been detected - an AED could have possibly saved their lives This book gives children and adults training through its easy step by step format with simple to understand instructions on the use of an AED and hands only CPR (Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation). This book helps to not only empower adults but children of any age to feel confident to help save a life - it is a powerful tool to help anyone over come fear that might otherwise keep them from getting involved in a life and death emergency. An Adventure with ED the AED helps to dispel many myths surrounding safety issues regarding the use of an AED - the AED will not shock anyone that is not in cardiac arrest (V-FIB or Pulse-less V-Tach). Our book helps to create an awareness of the location of AED's as well as clear and concise instructions on hands only CPR. It is relevant training for children in health class and a perfect tool to aid schools in their compliance for Legislative Actions across the U.S. and other countries for the training of all children including Kindergarten through 12th grade in this life saving skill. Fact: Anyone... yes even a child can save a life This is a psychological and cultural shift that is long overdue Please help us to train, educate and empower our new generation - our future - to embrace how easy it is to save a life without any hesitation at all The books overall message is simple: KEEP CALM & TURN THE AED ON The AED will tell you exactly how to do hands only CPR and deliver the life saving shock that could make all the difference between tragedy or triumph Did you know that even children who have had their hearts screened by doctor's can still go into sudden cardiac arrest during their sleep, during physical activity such as sports or during a time of excitement? It is true and wouldn't you want an AED to be right there if you needed one? We want that for all children and all people all over the world. Our Hero in our book is Jeff Lucas who is the beloved brother of James Lucas - the co-author of this book and Jeff Lucas was a Navy Seal who was determined to never fail. Jeff was tragically killed during a rescue mission of other Navy Seals in the Afghan mountains June 28, 2005. We choose Jeff as our hero in this book because he was a true hero in life - and we wanted to honor his memory and never forget that he gave the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom and peace - always wanting to help others and serve others to the ultimate level.
