A defibulator administers a charge to the cells of the heart. This cells normally contract in unison making the muscles also contract with normal rythym. When the heart cells fibulate( or contract randomly) the muscles fail to make the heart beat in normal rythym.The heart, more or less, just quivers which stops the normal blood flow. A charge from the defibulator gets them back in rythym by making them contract all at one time. This , hopefully, restores normal rythym. The charge is measued in joules ( one -ampere-second).

No, Defibrillation is the definitive treatment for the life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias ventricular fibrillation and pulseless ventricular tachycardia. Defibrillation consists of delivering a therapeutic dose of electrical energy to the affected heart with a device called a defibrillator. If you use a defibrillator on a person who does not need it you would be placing them in great danger.


How does CPR save people?

When you do CPR, you are performing the work that the heart can no longer do, due to Cardiac Arrest (heart stoppage). Every time the chest is compressed, this forces the blood in the heart round the body, and this keeps blood and oxygen flowing to all parts of the body, if not some. However, CPR and Mouth to mouth alone are not good enough (even though it is better than no action at all). A machine called a defibulator (AED) is required. This machine sends a shock, that will hopefully make the heart beat again.
