After the Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) delivers a shock, you should immediately resume CPR, starting with chest compressions. Continue performing CPR for about two minutes, or until the AED prompts you to analyze the heart rhythm again or emergency medical services arrive. Always follow the AED's voice prompts and ensure that no one is touching the patient during analysis or shock delivery.
Immediately after a shock, you will wait to follow the next instruction from the AED. After a shock, it will either immediately analyze again and possibly shock again, or direct you to check the patient for a pulse, and if none resume CPR.
