ferred to as ‘‘AEDs’’) in perceived medical emer-
gencies, who own or hold other property interests in 
AEDs used in perceived medical emergencies, or who 
own, occupy, or manage premises in which an AED 
is used or from which an AED is taken for use in 
a perceived medical emergency will encourage the 
deployment of additional AEDs, which will ulti-
mately save lives that would otherwise have been lost 
to cardiac arrest. 
(2) The current patchwork of State ‘‘Good Sa-
maritan’’ laws provides incomplete, inconsistent, 
and, in some instances, inadequate protection for en-
tities considering the acquisition or deployment of 
AEDs. In these circumstances, concerns about po-
tential liability resulting from the good-faith acquisi-
tion and deployment of this life-saving technology 
are inhibiting its deployment. 
(3) Such concerns are especially acute for enti-
ties with operations or facilities in multiple States, 
yet such entities are also among those in which the 
widespread deployment of AEDs would be most ben-
eficial.
