Anecdotally, I think this is a relatively common issue in cardiac arrest care. Take time to perfect the essentials when managing an arrest. Don’t accept anything less. If you’re a team leader, or team member, take time to notice these little things that make the big difference
Defib pad placement is important. Positioning them correctly can double someone’s chance of survival. Side A is correct. The key difference is that the pad on the left hand side of the chest has been placed on the side of the rib cage, closer to the armpit.
