Automated External Defibrillator for Cardiac Arrest
An automated External Defibrillator (AED) is an instrument used by medical professionals fabricated to scrutinize the heart rhythm and create an electric shock. This reinstates the heartbeat to normal for casualties of ventricular fibrillation (irregular heartbeat). This device examines a person’s heartbeat rhythm and decides if a shock is needed and does not deliver a shock unless required. It is used to manage sudden cardiac arrest.
The success rate is 90% at 6 minutes and the median time is 9.5 minutes.
Learning to use an AED:
The majority of heart attacks happen to people who do not have anything wrong with their hearts. People have a heart attack before they even realize it themselves, and 50% of the heart attacks are fatal.
