AEDs
An Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is a device used with CPR to treat sudden cardiac arrest by delivering an electric shock to restore a normal heart rhythm.
While CPR manually pumps blood to the brain and organs, an AED analyzes the heart and provides an electrical shock if needed.
Using both is crucial because a person's chance of survival decreases by 7-10% for every minute without an AED shock.
