What is an AED Defibrillator?

• AED is an Automated External Defibrillator that
  is used on a person during cardiac arrest.
• It is very easy to use, a medical device that can
  analyze the heart's rhythm and deliver an
  electric shock, or defibrillation, to help the
  heart re-establish an effective rhythm.

What is Chain of Survival ?

• CPR is a series of actions that when performed
  in sequence, will give a person having a heart
  attack the greatest chance of survival.
• The first link in the chain is to the immediate
  call of the emergency response.
• The next link is to perform early CPR, with
  weight on chest compressions until a
  defibrillator becomes available.
• The next link involves medications, using special
  breathing devices and providing defibrillation
  shocks if needed.

Traditional Use of Defibrillation

• Manual defibrillation is the traditional form of
  defibrillation performed by health care, is a
  complex skill.
• As they become portable, these systems started
  using outside hospitals.
• The defibrillator was transported to the victim
  rather than transporting the victim to a
  defibrillator.

When to Use an AED Defibrillator?

• The device is used to help people having a sudden
  cardiac arrest.
• Sticky pads with sensors, called electrodes, are
  attached to the chest of cardiac arrest
  casualty.
• The electrodes send information about the
  person's heart rhythm to a computer in the AED.
