Children’s Hospital has launched a new initiative, Project ADAM Tennessee, to serve children and adolescents through education and life-saving programs that help prevent sudden cardiac arrest. AEDs allow for early defibrillation, an electrical shock to the heart that enables the heart to return to its normal rhythm. 

With an AED on-site, school responders can immediately attempt to save a life. All public Knox County high schools currently have an AED, but most middle schools do not have access to one. Project ADAM Tennessee aims to place an AED in each Knox County middle school by 2013.
