CardiAngel

in Airports & Aircrafts

Airports and aircrafts are high-traffic environments where sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) can happen without warning. In such time-critical emergencies, immediate defibrillation is essential. The CardiAngel automated external defibrillator (AED) is specifically designed to meet the needs of these dynamic and challenging environments.

This image captures travelers walking through a modern, sunlit airport terminal. Airports experience high daily foot traffic, including elderly passengers and those with pre-existing conditions. CardiAngel AEDs are essential in both terminals and aircrafts, providing rapid response in confined or remote locations. With delayed access to emergency services in-flight or across vast terminals, an AED can be the critical link between life and death.

Why AEDs are Essential in Airports & Aircrafts?

  • High Passenger Volume: Millions of travelers pass through airports daily, including elderly passengers, individuals with chronic conditions, and frequent flyers at increased risk of cardiac events.

  • Delayed Access to Emergency Services: In the air, immediate medical support is limited. Even on the ground, navigating large terminals to reach emergency responders can take valuable minutes.

  • Confined Spaces and Long Travel Times: Onboard aircraft, access to professional medical help can be hours away. A defibrillator is often the only chance for survival in case of SCA mid-flight.

  • Global Health Regulations: International guidelines, including those from IATA, EASA, and FAA, strongly recommend or mandate the presence of AEDs in commercial aircraft and major airport facilities.

  • Improved Survival Rates: Studies show that the chance of surviving sudden cardiac arrest drops by 10% for every minute without defibrillation. AEDs drastically improve outcomes when used within the first 3–5 minutes.​

Why CardiAngel is Ideal for Aviation and Airport Settings?

  • Compact & Lightweight Design: CardiAngel’s ultra-portable structure makes it ideal for use in aircraft cabins, crew compartments, and public airport zones.

  • Clear Voice Prompts & Multilingual Support: Step-by-step audio instructions help crew members or bystanders act confidently, critical in multilingual international hubs.

  • Fast Shock Delivery: CardiAngel delivers a shock in seconds after rhythm analysis, providing one of the fastest response times in the industry.

  • Automatic Self-Check System: Ensures readiness for use at all times, an essential feature for devices stored onboard aircraft or in airport terminals.

  • Biphasic Technology with High First-Shock Efficacy: Maximizes survival rates with efficient, low-energy defibrillation that reduces harm to the heart.

  • Adapted to Global Travel Conditions: With international usability, multilingual support, and environmental resilience, CardiAngel is a smart choice for aviation and airport environments.​
