AEDs are lightweight and portable devices that deliver an electric shock through the chest to the heart. The shock can potentially stop and irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia and allow a normal rhythm to resume following SCA (sudden cardiac arrest). SCA occurs when the heart malfunctions and stops beating unexpectedly. If not treated within minutes, it can quickly lead to death. Most SCAs are a result of VF, or ventricular fibrillation. VF is a rapid unsynchronized heart rhythm that originates in the lower chambers of the heart. Did you know that the victim's chance of surviving drops between 7-10% every minute a normal heartbeat is not restored? This is why the heart must be defibrillated quickly.
AEDs are generally kept where health professionals and first responders can use them. This includes health facilities, ambulances, as well as public access units which can be found in government offices, shopping centers, restaurants, and more. The public access units are typically highly visible. They are brightly colored, mounted in a protective case, and have signs about what they are. When these protective cases are opened, some will sound an alarm to alert nearby professionals of their removal.
