They connected the defibrillator, determined that the corrections officer was asystolic with perhaps a possible ventricular fibrillation. They detected no electrical activity within the heart and defibrillated, using the lowest setting at 200 joules. They then initiated chest compressions. Paramedics arrived 18 minutes later, immediately starting an intravenous (IV) line and administering epinephrine and then atropine.
