Before time defibrillation can save the life of people as it boosts the chances of survival by minimizing the cardiac damage. We never know or there is no timetable when anybody is likely to have an sudden cardiac hit but, if we have defibrillators in our region then the life could be saved by preliminary the defibrillation on time.
