Activation energy is the minimum quantity of energy that the reacting species must possess in order to undergo a specified reaction.
for example , striking a match on the side of a matchbox provides the activation energy, in the form of heat produced by friction.
By lowering the activation energy, it helps the reaction go faster.
Rapid defibrillation is important because it contributes greatly to the survival of sudden cardiac arrest patients by eliminating abnormal hearth rhythm. Research has shown that the only proven, effective treatment for sudden heart attack is prompt defibrillation which is applied within the first few minutes of attack.
