The person touching the victim will also receive an electric shock (not as powerful as the victim but a shock none the less).
You would be shocked as well as the patient.
The AED could pick up the heart rhythm of the person touching the victim and not shock when a shock is required.
If you touch the victim while an AED is delivering a shock, you too will receive a shock.
You get shocked, too.
Do not touch the child before analyzing the heart rhythm so the AED will not pick up your heart rhythm. Do not touch the child before delivering a shock so you will not be shocked.
Nobody can safely touch the injured person during shock delivery. If anyone does, the shock will be transmitted to that person.
No one!
When you touch something and get an electric shock, it is because of the transfer of electric charge between you and the object. This can happen when there is a difference in the electrical potential between you and the object, causing a sudden flow of electricity through your body.
Because the AED may pick up the persons rhythm who is touching the patient and not shock when a shock is required.

Touch potential is the voltage a person can be exposed to if they touch an energized object while also being in contact with the ground. It is the difference in voltage between the energized object and the ground that the person is touching. Touch potential can pose a dangerous risk of electric shock in certain situations.
People feel shock when they touch some objects due to the buildup of static electricity on the surface of those objects. When a person touches these objects, the excess electrons move from the object to the person, resulting in a sudden discharge of static electricity that is felt as a shock.
