“Medical emergency applications for smartphones are finding their way into the marketplace for consumers.
A recent entrant is AED Nearby, an application to help users locate the nearest automated external defibrillator.
Launched in January by the First Aid Corps, a group of volunteers trained to provide resuscitation in case of cardiac arrest, AED Nearby will help users locate the nearest defibrillator when sudden cardiac arrest occurs. The application works in conjunction with a GPS system to identify the user’s location and direct him or her to the nearest device.”
