This could be ground breaking for medicine and those who suffer heart attacks, only questions are: 1. How portable is it? 2. how long does it take to set up? Otherwise, it may be very useful/ helpful to the healthcare team as performing CPR is such an exhaustive task, if you don’t get it right, you run the risk of loosing a life! *What are your thoughts on this?*

About Defibrillator..... Defibrillators are devices that apply an electric charge or current to the heart to restore a normal heartbeat. If the heart rhythm stops due to cardiac arrest, also known as sudden cardiac arrest (SCA), a defibrillator may help it start beating again. A sudden cardiac arrest is fatal unless treated right away with CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) and a defibrillator. Some implantable or wearable defibrillators can also correct certain dangerous arrhythmias, which are problems with the rate or rhythm of your heartbeat. #snsinstitutions #snsdesignthinkers #designthinking
Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) are portable, life-saving devices designed to be used in an emergency situation. They analyze heart rhythm and can deliver an electric shock (defibrillation) if necessary, potentially restarting a person's heart during cardiac arrest. Functionality: -Analyses heart rhythm: The AED uses electrodes placed on the chest to analyze the electrical activity of the heart. -Delivers electric shock: If the AED detects a specific abnormal heart rhythm (ventricular fibrillation or pulseless ventricular tachycardia), it will deliver an electric shock (defibrillation) to try to restore a normal heart rhythm.

Defibrillators are devices that apply an electric charge or current to the heart to restore a normal heartbeat. If the heart rhythm stops due to cardiac arrest, also known as sudden cardiac arrest (SCA), a defibrillator may help it start beating again.Most defibrillators are energy-based, meaning that the devices charge a capacitor to a selected voltage and then deliver a prespecified amount of energy in joules. The amount of energy that arrives at the myocardium is dependent upon the selected voltage and the transthoracic impedance (which varies by patient). #snsinstitutions #snsdesignthinkers #snsdesignthinking
Shockable vs. Non-Shockable Rhythms in Cardiac Arrest (ALS): In Advanced Life Support (ALS), identifying heart rhythms is critical for guiding treatment during cardiac arrest. 🔌 Shockable Rhythms (respond to defibrillation): Ventricular Fibrillation (VF): Chaotic electrical activity. Pulseless Ventricular Tachycardia (VT): Rapid, ineffective heartbeats. ⚠️ Non-Shockable Rhythms (defibrillation not effective): Asystole: No electrical activity (flatline). Pulseless Electrical Activity (PEA): Electrical activity without a pulse. Start high-quality CPR immediately, identify the rhythm, and follow the ALS algorithm. #CardiacArrest #ALS #CPR #Defibrillation #EmergencyMedicine
