How to Use an AED: A Step-by-Step Guide for Beginners
In a cardiac emergency, using an AED (Automated External Defibrillator) can mean the difference between life and death. AEDs are designed to be simple and user-friendly, making them accessible even to those without medical training. This guide will walk you through the steps to use an AED effectively, ensuring you’re prepared to take action when it matters most.

AEDs vs. CPR: What's the Difference?
In a cardiac emergency, every second counts. Two essential lifesaving techniques—AEDs (Automated External Defibrillators) and CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation)—are often mentioned together, but they serve different roles. While both are used in emergencies, understanding their differences can help bystanders take the right action and improve survival rates.

What Is an AED and How Does It Save Lives?
Every second counts when someone experiences sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). An automated external defibrillator (AED) is a crucial tool to help restart the heart and save lives. But what exactly is an AED, and why is it so effective? Understanding its purpose and function can empower individuals to take action in emergency situations.

Sudden Cardiac Arrest vs. Heart Attack: What’s the Difference?
When someone collapses unexpectedly, bystanders often assume it's a heart attack. However, it could be something far more serious—sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). Though both conditions involve the heart, they are vastly different in causes, symptoms, and required emergency responses
