Two |
| Apply the AED only to patients who are pulseless, apneic and ___________. |
unresponsive |
| converting a heart to a rhythm with a pulse with an electrical shock |
defibrillation |
| venticular____________is a very fast heart rhythm generated in the ventricle |
tachycardia |

PEA |
| Cardiac____________occurs when the heart is not pumping and no pulses can be felt |
arrest |
| ______________the patient after three "no shock" messages are recerived from the AED` |
transport |
| To be most effective, defibrillation must be administered within_________min |
four |

asystole |
| The most frequent initial rhythm in sudden cardiac death is_____________fibrillation |
ventricular |
| ____________CPR and get clear of the patient as the AED analyzes the rhythm. |
