that delivers an electric shock
through the chest to the heart.
That shock can stop an irreg-
ular heart rhythm and allow
normal heart function to
resume.
The American Heart
Association estimates that
immediate cardiopulmonary
resuscitation (CPR) and early
defibrillation with an AED
can substantially increase a
victim’s chance of survival.
“Every second counts
when it comes to treating
Sudden Cardiac Arrest,”
according to Sisters-Camp
Sherman Fire District Chief
Roger Johnson. “We want to
do everything we can in our
coverage area to maximize
survivability.”
CPR and AED training is
available through the Sisters-
Camp Sherman RFPD. Call
