Yes. Defibrillator is useless if your heart has stopped.
No, its useless if their heart has stopped. Two different things.
Fixed.
Defibrillators are useless when your dead
That’s incorrect.
Someone might be not breathing for a number of reasons. Most likely however, when you find them unconscious & not breathing on the street it’s for cardiac reasons. And then a defibrillator is the one best treatment for that (if the heart has a shockable rhythm that is).
