Abstract
Research and studies consistently highlight the importance of Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) and the ongoing need for continued research and optimized implementation strategies to maximize their life-saving potential. Studies provide evidence-based recommendations for policy makers and healthcare providers regarding AED programs, training initiatives, and regulations to ensure the safe and effective use of AEDs [3]. Objective: To assess the level of knowledge on automated external defibrillator among staff nurses and to correlate the association between the knowledge on automated external defibrillator among staff nurses with their selected demographic variables Methods: descriptive study conducted among 50 staff nurses in selected hospital at Tirunelveli. Results: This study proven that 76% of staff nurses have low knowledge on automated external defibrillator among staff nursesConclusion: Identify potential barriers to AED use, such as lack of training, fear of using the device, or inadequate access to AEDs. Providing nurses with the tools and knowledge to use AEDs can empower them to play a more active role in emergency care and potentially save lives
