Ventricular fibrillation is the main reason for cardiac arrest. The probability for survival decreases by 10% every minute, therefore immediate resuscitation is necessary. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) by trained first responders is already established, when a doctor is not available. Today automated external defibrillators (AED) are available to first responders for an effective therapy of ventricular fibrillation. Thanks to the high reliability of today's automated external defibrillators they can be used by trained first responders without any legal reservations. If a defibrillator is available, a trained first responder is obliged to use it in an emergency.
心室颤动是心脏骤停的主要原因。生存率每分钟下降10%，因此必须立即进行复苏。当没有医生在场时，训练有素的急救人员进行心肺复苏（CPR）已经成为常规操作。如今，自动体外除颤器（AED）可供急救人员用于有效治疗心室颤动。由于当今自动体外除颤器的高可靠性，经过培训的急救人员可以使用它们而无需任何法律顾虑。如果有除颤器可用，训练有素的急救人员在紧急情况下有义务使用它。
