Answer: The correct answer to the question is option A

SEARCH FOR AN AED.

Explanation: AED stands for Automated External Defibrillator.

It is a machine that is used to re-establish a normal cardiac rythym in cases of cardiac arrest or when the heart stops beating momentarily.

It delivers electric shock via the chest to the heart inorder to stop an an irregular heart rythym and establish an effective one.

From the scenerio in the question,5 cycles and 2minutes of CPR has been done on the victim but no pulse is present, The next best thing to do is to use an AED to shock the victim inorder to re-establish the lost cardiac rythym and pulse respectively.

This is achieved placing the pads on victim, analysis the rythym, move slightly away from the victim to prevent any contact and then shock the victim by pressing the shock button as the AED instructs showing that the rythym presented is a shockable one.
