We do not schedule classes in advance. Day classes typically begin every 8 weeks and evening classes every 12 weeks. Students will be invited to register for a class of their choice as classes are formed. You will be notified of registration dates two weeks prior to the start of class.
Home Use of Automatic External Defibrillators to Treat Sudden Cardiac Arrest (HAT) This study has been completed. To compare home use of an automatic external defibrillator (AED) to the use of local emergency medical system in treating survivors of sudden cardiac arrest.
A defibrillator is a device that introduces electrical current or shock to the heart to correct cases of ventricular fibrillation (a quivering of the heart which limits the heart muscle from pumping blood to the body), cardiac arrhythmias (abnormal electrical activity), and ventricular tachycardia (fast heart rhythm).
