The Cardiac Arrest Survival Foundation (CASF), a registered charitable fund, aims to reduce the number of needless deaths from cardiac arrest by improving public awareness, reliability and accessibility of AEDs, especially in public spaces and workplaces.

Sudden Cardiac Arrest

Sudden cardiac arrest is the leading cause of sudden death in Western society yet we know little about its impact in Australia.

While the number of deaths in Australia has been estimated at over 33,000 per year, the CASF aims to improve the validity and application of this important data.

Community Deployments

Deployment of defibrillator / AED rescue systems in the community is a "brick and mortar" heart safety initiative of the CASF.
