SAN FRANCISCO, CA – With burdensome legislative updates and high likelihood of differing AED statutes in each American county and state, it’s no wonder Automated External Defibrillator (AED) owners are confused when it comes to the topic of AED Medical Direction and Oversight. Fortunately, Arch, Annuvia’s new AED program management software solution, provides answers to these challenging questions – nationally!

Arch was built by some of the brightest minds in the Silicon Valley, professional programmers with years of experience building some of the internet age’s top internet and software solutions, and attorneys specializing in AED program management, to create the world’s most engaging, user-friendly AED Medical Direction and Oversight program. Combined with Annuvia’s national team of health care providers, fire fighters, paramedics, and emergency room physicians with years of experience responding to sudden cardiac arrest emergencies, Arch gives AED owners a powerful option to help properly manage their AED units.

“When we set out to build Arch, we knew we had to show AED owners that their programs were managed utilizing the world’s leading technology AND endorsed by the world’s leading professionals,” states Micah Bongberg, President of Annuvia, a national CPR/AED training company and developer of the Arch program. “Arch offers AED Medical Oversight by some of America’s top physicians, with specialties ranging from family medicine to emergency and internal medicine, to cardiology, and electrophysiology. We recognized that by partnering with just a single medical specialty, such as cardiologists, we might be limiting the important exposure many different medical specialties can provide in stressing the benefits of AED units in the community.”

Arch has such a robust team of physicians overseeing its clients’ programs, that AED owners are able to leverage the full benefits of a broad medical team. “Our AED Medical Directors touch the lives of a diverse group of patients and communities. Therefore, we’re able to more effectively spread the word about the importance of community AED programs and well managed programs, like those offered by Arch,” says Bongberg. Arch shows communities that AED programs are endorsed by more than a specialty, but the medical community as a whole. This mantra builds confidence that AEDs are not only safe and AED programs easy to implement, but that deploying AED units is simply the right thing to do.
