Automated External Defibrillator (Aed)

A defibrillator is a medical device that delivers an electric shock to the heart to restore a normal heartbeat, specifically in cases of ventricular fibrillation or non-perfusing ventricular tachycardia, which can lead to cardiac arrest. It works by momentarily disrupting the heart's electrical activity to allow the natural pacemaker to regain control and restart the heart's rhythm.
