An Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is a portable electronic device that analyzes heart rhythms and delivers an electrical shock to help restore a normal heartbeat in cases of sudden cardiac arrest.
AEDs are designed for use by both trained medical professionals and laypersons, providing clear, step-by-step instructions to guide users through the process. Early defibrillation with an AED significantly increases the chances of survival for individuals experiencing sudden cardiac arrest.
