With today’s unhealthy lifestyle, more and more people suffer and die from cardiac arrest. Is there anything we can do in the early stage before the dreaded arrest happens?

The first use of a defribillator on a human being was in 1947 when Claude Beck used the technique on a 14-year old boy who was being operated on for congenital chest defect. The defribillator was used on the open heart. It was a success but since that time it has improved a lot too that even people with no knowledge whatsoever as long as you can follow simple instructions.

A clinically dead person can be revived only within the next 5 minutes. Beyond that, the revived person will be vegetable and that’s not a life to live. Five minutes is very crucial. If you are far from emergency rescue beyond 5 minutes, it’s best to have your own automated external defribillator (AED) at home.

Applying is easy as 1-2-3. You can’t go wrong. You won’t accidentally emit the surge unless the machine detects that it’s needed.
