Not that it matters, but the survey study itself was funded by R01 HD082554, which was approved and granted under the first Trump administration. reporter.nih.gov/search/HGjq9...

The NIH budget cuts are both tragic and completely absurd. Among the justifications shared by the White House, they imply a NIH-funded study in NEJM caused suicide but ... it was just an observational study! They gave participants surveys! www.nejm.org/doi/full/10....

Oh, hey, and it has OTA updates, and supports GPS, cellular, bluetooth, and WiFi (!). Obviously nothing can go wrong here, since it's "designed with cybersecurity in mind" https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/cdrh_docs/pdf21/P210015B.pdf (Honestly solid looking product, hoping it actually ships!)

Downsides: Comically pre-release so far — my confirmation order email failed DMARC and was spam-flagged (their fault, not configured). The wallmount is … $99 for a piece of plastic? 🙄 (and ~all the endpoints in the FDA approval are 404s https://avive.life/Updates)

Upsides: USB C charging, really sleek looking — and they claim the first AED to actually depict a woman's chest (perhaps improving female cardiac arresst outcomes?)

Ok Bluesky — I recently pre-ordered a sleek-looking home AED from a startup (https://avive.life/). It's a little sketchy so far, but 🤞 they have FDA approval so hopefully things work out? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
