Question:
Why is the pads of a defibrillator on the top right and bottom left of the torso when the heart is on the left
Answers:
The easiest "lamens terms" answer I can give you is: the electrical charge from the pads has to travel completely through the heart in order to jump-start it. The top right & bottom left placement is the best in order to ensure this happens.
