Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) knows no boundaries. Its victims are young and old, at the office and in class, worshipping, exercising, and walking to their airport gate. But no matter where or when SCA strikes, early use of a defibrillator is the only effective treatment for ventricular fibrillation, a potentially fatal heart rhythm associated with SCA. Simple, safe, and effective, LIFEPAK® automated external defibrillators (AEDs) from Physio-Control provide a critical resource to help a first responder—a colleague, a teacher, or simply a passerby—save the life of another human being.
