One of the biggest advancement in first responder cardiac life support is the Automated External Defibrillator. When a victim is suffering from ventricular fibrillation or similar shockable rhythms, the AED can help get the heart back to a normal sinus rhythm. By sending an electrical shock through the heart, the AED can stop the irregular contractions and electrical impulses causing cardiac arrest. The best thing about these devices is that anyone can be trained to use them. AED certification can be done quickly and easily online with our accredited classes.
