Answer:

It eliminates the abnormal heart rate.

Explanation:

The Chain of Survival should be applied when a patient is under cardiac arrest.

Cardiac arrest is mostly caused due to abnormal electrical activity in the victim's heart. This can result in ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia which, if not treated, could cause death.

An automated external defibrillator (AED) is designed to restore the heart's regular activity, by providing a heavy electric shock to the patient's chest. This a vital step in the chain of survival as it greatly increases the chances of survival.

The _____ are responsible for the perception of rapid vibrations, such as you would experience when using a hand-held massager.
Andrej [43]

The Pacinian corpuscles are responsible for the perception of rapid vibrations, such as you would experience when using a hand-held massager.

In the bone periosteum, joint capsules, pancreas and other viscera, breast, and genitals, Pacinian corpuscles are found deep in the dermis of both glabrous and hairy skin. They are structurally similar to Meissner's corpuscles. They are fast adapting mechanoreceptors that detect high-frequency vibration and deep brief (but not persistent) pressure. By being crushed, The pacinian receptors sense vibration and pressure by stimulating their internal dendrites. Skin has less Merkel's disks and Meissner's corpuscles than Pacinian corpuscles and Ruffini endings.
