Set Public Hearing For <br /> CONTINUED TO <br /> 1 ( <br /> FILE NUMBER <br /> Gk- <br /> CITY MANAGER <br /> RECOMMENDED ACTION <br /> Award a contract to ZOLL Medical Corporation for the purchase of 10 manual defibrillators in the <br /> amount of $252,000. <br /> <br /> DISCUSSION <br /> <br /> The Santa Ana Fire Department's Emergency Medical Services (EMS) use defibrillators in the <br /> performance of their duties. In March 2005, the City Council awarded a contract to ZOLL Medical <br /> Corporation for the purchase of 10 manual defibrillators. The Orange County EMS regulates <br /> standards for EKG testing and manages the replacement schedule; a five year life span on <br /> defibrillators. With the replacements, the paramedics can continue to perform critical life saving <br /> procedures in the field and while transporting patients to the hospital. The ZOLL E Series ACLS <br /> 12-lead defibrillator has proven to be responsive to the Fire Department needs and the Fire <br /> Authority standards and protocols. <br /> <br /> Santa Ana City Ordinance No. NS-2312 authorizes the City to purchase against contracts from <br /> any public agency utilizing a competitive bid process. The County of Los Angeles contract with <br /> ZOLL Medical Corporation for 12-lead defibrillators was awarded as a result of open, competitive <br /> bidding, and meets the City's requirements. <br /> <br /> FISCAL IMPACT <br /> <br /> Funds are available in the Metropolitan Medical Response System 2009 Grant account (no. <br /> 14615364-63001). <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 22B-1 <br />
