The responsibility for this accident lies with the medical personnel who were responsible for setup and preparation of the defibrillator prior to the patient's treatment. They should have ensured that the electrodes were connected properly and that they were working correctly. Furthermore, they should have also implemented protocols to ensure that mistakes in set up are avoided in the future.
