The purpose of the thesis is to present the knowledge of lay people in the region of Koroška in the field of basic life support procedures and the use of automatic defibrillator (AED). Method: The research was based on a quantitative method, the primary sources were obtained through the survey and practical testing of the use of an AED on a dummy. Secondary sources were collected through the review of professional and scientific articles by Slovene and foreign authors. To find resources, the following databases were used: Cobbis and Proquest. Results: Half of the surveyed lay people in the region of Koroška know where an AED is located in their place of residence. The automatic external defibrillator was correctly used by 53.3% of the survey participants, half of the surveyed lay people in the Koroška region know the correct sequencing of CPR.
