CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION AGENDA SECTION WORK SESSION ITEMS MEETING DATE 10/4/21 ITEM: Approve the Expenditures for the Replacement of all Automatic External Defibrillators, (AED) in the Police Department and Fire Department. DEPARTMENT: Fire/Police BY/DATE: Charles Thompson, 10/04/2021 CITY STRATEGY: (please indicate areas that apply by adding a bold “X” in front of the selected text below) X Safe Community _Diverse, Welcoming “Small-Town” Feel _Economic Strength - Excellent Housing/Neighborhoods _Equity and Affordability X Strong Infrastructure/Public Services _Opportunities for Play and Learning _Engaged, Multi-Generational, Multi-Cultural Population BACKGROUND: The Fire Department and Police Department use Automatic External Defibrillators, (AEDs) as a tool for early intervention when a patient is having a cardiac episode . Early intervention and use of the AED has proven to be extremely effective in saving lives of patients who are in a cardiac arrest. For this reason, all squad cars and fire vehicles have been equipped with these devices for many years. ANALYSIS: All AEDs in stock at the Police and Fire Departments were purchased between 9 and 11 years ago. This is far past the recommend replacement time of 8 years. The American Hospital Association lists the life expectancy of an AED at roughly 5 years. Other institutions, like the Department of the Army, list AED life expectancy at roughly 8 years. Age has not been the only issue with our current AEDs. The Police Department purchased their AEDs from a different manufacturer than the Fire Department and the two are not compatible. In addition, neither department’s AEDs are compatible with the equipment used by Allina. The result is situations where a cardiac patient may have defibrillator pads applied and removed multiple times before being lifted onto an ambulance for transportation. CONCLUSION: The purchase of new AEDs for both the Fire Department and the Police Department will greatly increase the operational readiness of both departments. It will also allow more continuity of operations between both departments. The Fire Department will manage the stocking of pads and spare batteries and will issue both when the old ones are expended. RECOMMENDATIONS: Motion to approve an expenditure of $31006.75 for the purchase of 25 new Defibrillators for the Police and Fire Department purchased from the AED Superstore. This funding will be a paid out of the 2021 Police department budget. Police Department: 13 units @ $1,240.27 = $16,123.51 Fire Department 12 units @ $1,240.27 = $14,883.24 TOTAL: $31,006.75 ATTACHMENT(S): Invoice from AED Superstore 3 Item 2. 9/2/2021 QUOTE PREPARED FOR:SHIP TO Tony Cuzzupe Columbia Heights Public Safety 825 41st Ave Ne Columbia Heights MN 55421-2910 Tony Cuzzupe Columbia Heights Public Safety 825 41st Ave Ne Columbia Heights MN 55421-2910 1800 US Hwy 51 N Woodruff, WI 54568 Phone: 800-422-8129 Fax: 888-364-2377 763-706-8150 763-706-8150 DATE QUOTE # 238062 CUST ID 187341 ·ÂÂ7p^s¸ Fax Number:Shipped via:Standard Shipping Sales Tax Estimate Total $0.00 $31,006.75 Subtotal $31,006.75 Reference: FREE Your Price Total Current PriceQuantityDescriptionItem Philips HeartStart FRx Defibrillator w/Carry Case.
