AED's
I've used these devices in my prior life as a police officer. We carried them in our vehicles and used them on calls. They are invaluable in these types of circumstances. They actually detect the vital issues with the heart and advise you what to do, or sometimes more importantly, what not to do. The city I live in in CA. have them placed in most recreation facilities and they have been used numerous times by civilians and have saved lives in the process. I highly recommend them for that time period prior to emergency services arrival. They are easy to use and pose no real threat to the user, if you can read and follow directions in english. There are different types and brands, but the one's we used talked to you and basically told you what to do from the moment you opened the case.
