EFR:                                      AED  Automated External Defibrillators
A step by step training guide for the use of AED’s in cardiac arrest.

 Heart attach is a very common cause of death. A severe heart attack often results in cardiac arrest. In this case, the heart usually beats very erratically and cannot generate circulation of blood to the body. If a normal heartbeat is not restored within a few minutes the victim will die.

 Automated external defibrillators (AED’s) are designed to diagnose cardiac arrest and, when appropriate, to deliver an electric shock to try to restore a normal heart rhythm. They can be used safely by people with minimal training.
