Early cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and rapid defibrillation combined with early advanced care can result in high long-term survival rates for witnessed sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). Death from SCA is not inevitable. If more people act quickly by calling 000 and performing CPR, if automated external defibrillators (AEDs) are more readily available, more lives can be saved.
