AED: the automatic defibrillator without fear

📖 Lesson ──▶ 🎯 Quiz — pick the translation ──▶ ✅ Lesson done

The AED is the green/white case with a lightning bolt at stations, shops, gyms. Inside a smart device: switch on — it guides you by VOICE step by step. Flow: switch on → bare the chest → stick two pads as pictured → don’t touch (analysis) → if told — press the flashing shock button → keep compressing. You can’t get it wrong: the AED decides itself if a shock is needed, it won’t deliver one otherwise.

●AEDs hang at stations, malls, schools — look for the white bolt on green
●The shock stops the arrhythmia — it “resets” fibrillation
●Dry a wet chest, hairy is fine. Time is everything: each minute −10%

⚡ AED + early compressions = up to 70% survival. At Frankfurt Airport more people survive than in hospitals: AEDs everywhere, staff trained.
