common cause of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). SCA is a condition
that occurs when the heart unexpectedly stops pumping. SCA can
occur to anyone
– young or old, male or female – anywhere, at any
time. Many victims of SCA do not have warning signs or symptoms.
Some people may have a higher risk for SCA than others. Causes
vary and may be different for infants and children than for adults.

VF is a chaotic quivering of the heart muscle that prevents it from
pumping blood. The only effective treatment for VF is
defibrillation.The FRx treats VF by sending a shock across the heart,
so it can start beating regularly again. Unless this is successful within
the first few minutes after the heart stops beating, the victim is not
likely to survive.
