Sudden cardiac arrest - it can strike anyone, anywhere, and at any time and in most cases without warning.
Without treatment, victims have only minutes to live. With quick response, this condition is readily treatable with survival rates high.
Unfortunately, most of the time, the necessary life-saving equipment does not arrive in time. As a result, survival rates for the seven out of ten cardiac arrests that occur outside hospital in the UK do not survive.
When someone suffers a cardiac arrest, their chances of survival drop by up to 10% for every minute that passes, so a speedy response is crucial. Every minute matters.
Around 270,000 people suffer a heart attack in the UK each year, 90,000 of which die before reaching hospital due to cardiac arrest. A cardiac arrest most often occurs as a result of a heart attack when the heart is starved of oxygen.
Cardiac arrest causes the heart either to quicken - known as fibrillation - or stop altogether. The AED works by delivering a controlled electric shock through the chest wall to the heart to restore a normal heart beat after cardiac arrest.
