In England, defibrillator owners are registered. Therefore, if a cardiac arrest occurs, the emergency caller can be told where the nearest defibrillator is located. The emergency responder, presumably, is also notified of the nearest defibrillator location. Defibrillators are sold without a prescription in Britain. Many groups are working to change the regulation in the United States that requires a prescription for the purchase of a defibrillator.
