That number may be different because of a lower survival chance of women combined with a lower incidence rate. I read several articles that suggested much higher rates for men, as do the heart disease deaths, I suppose. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30354377/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30354377/ lists 63% male. As for AED: It's the guideline in Germany, but we've also had a push for public availability, with most schools, banks, malls, larger offices etc having a portable one on site. I got to train with it during a first aid refresher recently, and it definitely taught me that I might need treatment as well if I'm to do CPR for 12-15 minutes.
