Automatic external defibrillators, or AEDs, could be placed in nearly every school or sports and recreation venue in Ohio, under a proposal that cleared the Republican-dominated House with overwhelming bipartisan support. The legislation, sparked by the sudden cardiac arrest of Buffalo Bills player Damar Hamlin in January on the field during a football game in Cincinnati, would require that all public schools and municipally-owned sports and recreation locations to have on-site AEDs. It cleared the chamber on an 84-6 vote. Current Ohio law allows school districts to require AEDs on site, but it’s an elective decision that’s left to individual districts.
