YOU ARE CORRECT!!!The answer is C. As a responder, you must first recognize an emergency before the rest of the Cardiac Chain of Survival can be put into motion. Early access to care is an important component to a successful outcome. Out of the remaining options in the list, early CPR is next. CPR keeps oxygenated blood flowing to vital organs such as the brain and heart. Early defibrillation with an AED (automated external defibrillator) is the third step out of those listed. An AED administers a shock that can restore an effective heart rhythm. In many states, AEDs are now available in public places for use by trained laypersons. Early advanced life support is the next step. In this step, a team of emergency personnel provides care at the scene and transports the victim to a hospital.
