In order to improve the students' understanding of the application and principles of medical apparatus in first aid, on the afternoon of October 23, we invited four doctors, including director Chen Yunli of the emergency department of the first affiliated hospital of Shantou University medical college, to give a special training lecture on "AED (Automatic cardiac External Defibrillator) application method and first aid knowledge" in the discussion room of our department. Teachers of medical engineering department and students of grade 18 participated in this training.

    In the training session, Chen Yunli, director of the emergency department of the first affiliated hospital of Shantou University medical college, pointed out that the penetration rate of first aid knowledge and the utilization rate of high-end medical instruments are low among Chinese, and AED defibrillation has been recognized as the most effective method to prevent sudden cardiac death, so the training of relevant first aid knowledge and skills is of great significance.

    Then doctor Xiong Yurong,  emphasized the concept of defibrillation, the correct procedure of first aid in cardiac arrest, and the use of AED external automatic defibrillator professionally through multimedia devices and live demonstrations, fully showed the accident emergency rescue process and skills.

    Later, four doctors invited medical engineering students to participate in the demonstration of the use of AED and the operation of cardiopulmonary resuscitation. After the session, students all said that they had learnt and earned. If they encountered an emergency in the future, they would know how to carry out rescue in the first time with correct methods, and they also learn the great significance of medical equipment for life.
