An Automated External Defibrillators (AED) deliver a short, powerful electric shock to help a heart regain its natural rhythm.
An AED is used to help anyone whose heart suddenly stops pumping. A person in cardiac arrest will fall unconscious and will not be breathing normally. Seconds count. An AED will increase someone’s chance of survival by up to 80% if applied immediately.
AEDs can be used with no training. The machine will tell you what to do and it will not allow a shock to be delivered unless appropriate.
