When using a defibrillator, place the pads on the patient's bare chest: one pad should be positioned on the upper right side of the chest, just below the collarbone, and the other pad should be placed on the lower left side of the chest, a few inches below the armpit. Ensure there is no clothing or moisture that could interfere with the pads' adhesion. For children, use pediatric pads if available, and follow specific placement guidelines for their age and size. Always follow the device's visual or auditory prompts for proper use.

When using a defibrillator, the first step is to ensure the scene is safe for both the rescuer and the victim. Next, turn on the defibrillator and follow the audible or visual prompts provided by the device. Attach the pads to the patient's bare chest as indicated, ensuring they are placed correctly, and then allow the defibrillator to analyze the heart rhythm. If a shock is advised, ensure no one is touching the patient and press the shock button.
