It is sad to know that there is a high percentage of the population who has cardiac problems. Many people have cardiac arrest everyday and many cardiac arrests happen in private homes. With an automated external defibrillator in your home, you wouldn’t lose precious minutes waiting for rescue workers to arrive with an AED (Automated External Defibrillator). When the heart stops beating effectively and can’t adequately pump blood to the brain and vital organs, a person will die within a few minutes or if he survives, he may sustain permanent damage of the brain and other organs.
