Each crash cart is configured with a variety of resuscitative equipment, including defibrillators, airway management tools, and intravenous supplies. For instance, a defibrillator, a device that delivers an electric shock to the heart to restore a normal rhythm, is often the first tool used in cases of sudden cardiac arrest. In addition, the cart usually contains a range of emergency medications, such as epinephrine, atropine, and amiodarone, which are crucial for stabilizing patients until they can receive further treatment.
