Partnership through Project AED365 rewards PulsePoint responders and helps to build the National Emergency AED Registry (NEAR)
FRANKLIN, Tenn., Oct. 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Coro Medical, a leader in life-saving medical devices, announced a new Project AED365 partnership with the PulsePoint Foundation to strengthen community readiness for sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). From October 22–31, Coro Medical will donate 10 automated external defibrillator (AED) packages to PulsePoint Respond users who have acted in a CPR or AED-needed emergency.
The partnership coincides with October’s Sudden Cardiac Arrest Awareness Month and supports PulsePoint’s ongoing mission to increase community engagement in cardiac arrest response. The donations will include a ZOLL AED 3 provided by ZOLL Medical, three years of AED365 Pro Program Management, a seat in HSI’s Remote Skills Verification (RSV) CPR/AED/First Aid certification course, and a LifeVac anti-choking device, ensuring each recipient is equipped and trained to respond in a cardiac emergency.
“As part of Project AED365, our goal is to ensure AEDs are accessible wherever cardiac emergencies happen and to support the incredible individuals who step up when lives are on the line,” said Travis Harris, CEO of Coro Medical. “Partnering with PulsePoint allows us to honor those first responders and bystanders who exemplify the power of preparedness.”
PulsePoint’s annual AED Contest encourages individuals and communities to locate and register AEDs using the PulsePoint AED app, helping to build the National Emergency AED Registry (NEAR). Registered AEDs become visible to the public and 9-1-1 telecommunicators, allowing dispatchers to guide callers to nearby AEDs during emergencies. Participants in the challenge can win prizes for locating and registering AEDs throughout October.
“We’re thrilled to partner with Coro Medical and Project AED365 to honor those willing to respond and help someone in need,” said Shannon Smith, VP of Communications, PulsePoint Foundation. “By combining our efforts to expand AED registration and access, we’re building stronger, more resilient communities ready to respond when seconds matter.”
