What is the first thing that you should do when a person collapses with a cardiac arrest: A. Call 911 B. Use an automatic defibrillator
The answer would be B. Use an automatic defibrillator Whether it is a young athlete who collapses on the field or some one working out in the local gym, or someone on the golf course the use of a defibrillator in the first minutes while waiting for paramedics may just save a life. The device is easy to use and will only shock the person if it is needed, but if it needed it could save precious minutes. At my workout place I located the device the first week I joined the club. My husband and I have thought about keeping one in the car: the cost $1500.00 if it saves a life: Priceless
