Why is AED becoming increasingly important in first aid?
Because the time from collapse to defibrillation is one of the most important determinants of survival after cardiac arrest with ventricular fibrillation or pulseless tachycardia, the sooner defibrillation is initiated, the more likely the patient is to survive.

When ventricular fibrillation occurs, the heart muscle fibers quiver and cannot contract in sync to pump blood. A defibrillator delivers an electrical shock that stops the fibers from quivering and " resets " them so that they begin to contract at the same time.

Once a regular rhythm occurs, the heart muscle begins to contract effectively and begins to form a pulse (called return of spontaneous circulation, or ROSC)
