DEFIBRILLATION A.E.D.

The next stage up from resuscitation, when we use chest compressions to circulate the blood, is the use of a defibrillator. Compressions of the heart do not restart the heart , only the use of a defibrillator will enable the heart to restart, and this must be used within 10 minutes of the heart ceasing to beat. The main causes of cardiac arrest are electrical injury, heart attack, prolonged asphyxia and hypothermia.
