Adrenaline, also known as epinephrine, is a hormone and medication that stimulates the heart and increases blood flow. It is commonly used in emergency situations to treat cardiac arrest, anaphylaxis, and severe asthma attacks.
Norepinephrine: A hormone similar to adrenaline but primarily affects blood vessels to increase blood pressure.
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR): A life-saving technique used in emergencies when the heart stops beating.
Defibrillation: The use of electrical shock to restore normal heart rhythm during cardiac arrest.
