Can I be shocked by a Home Defibrillator (automated external defibrillator)?

In most cases no. The Home Defibrillator (AED) will provide audible instructions and let you know when it is going to send the electric shock. Remember – this shock will not start a dead heart, but it will stop certain lethal rhythms and give the heart a chance to spontaneously re-establish an effective rhythm on its own.
