Owning an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is a vital step in saving lives during cardiac emergencies, but proper maintenance is just as important. Without regular upkeep, an AED might fail when it’s needed most. That’s where AED Log steps in, offering a streamlined, user-friendly solution to ensure your AEDs are always ready to perform.
Why AED Maintenance Matters
AEDs are life-saving devices, but they require regular care to function properly. Key maintenance tasks include battery checks to ensure the battery has sufficient charge and replacing it as needed, verifying that electrode pads are within their expiration date and properly stored, and performing regular inspections to confirm the AED passes all self-tests and is stored in an accessible location. Neglecting these responsibilities can lead to compliance issues and, worse, device failure during a critical moment.

AED Log provides an all-in-one AED management solution to track inspections, automate reminders, and maintain compliance with ease.

Whether you manage AEDs for a school, business, or public space, AED Log ensures you stay organized and compliant. Learn more about our features at AED Log’s Features page.
Best Practices for AED Maintenance
To keep your AEDs in top condition, establish a routine to schedule regular checks and log them for accountability, use tools like AED Log to automate maintenance reminders, train staff so employees or responders know how to check and maintain AEDs, and regularly inspect your AED accessories, such as carrying cases and CPR masks. AED Log integrates these best practices into its platform, saving you time and ensuring your AEDs meet all safety standards.
How AED Log Supports Compliance
Laws and regulations regarding AED maintenance vary by state, but most require regular inspections and maintenance, documentation proving compliance, and registration with local EMS in some cases. With AED Log, you can meet these requirements effortlessly, avoiding fines and ensuring your AEDs are always ready to save lives.
