DEFIBRILLATORS
The Heart Pump: a series of events...
• An electrical event …
• stimulates a mechanical event …
• which results in a rhythmic and coordinated pumping action of the heart muscle
![Page 9: DEFIBRILLATORS Responding to Sudden Cardiac Arrest](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/568142c1550346895daf0e63/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

DEFIBRILLATORS
Sudden Cardiac Arrest: A Heart in Distress
• Uncoordinated, very fast heart rhythm – Ventricular fibrillation (VF)– Some ventricular tachycardias (VT)
• Ineffective heart pump• Unconscious, no breathing, no pulse• Death certain without defibrillation
![Page 10: DEFIBRILLATORS Responding to Sudden Cardiac Arrest](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/568142c1550346895daf0e63/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

DEFIBRILLATORS
What Is Defibrillation?• Electric shock to the heart
• Stops uncoordinated activity
• Allows coordinated heart rhythm and pumping action to resume
• Only effective treatment for ventricular fibrillation

• On-site Early Defibrillation Programs enhance 9-1-1 EMS systems… resulting in more lives saved
• Rapidly becoming a standard of care
