Story
So you’ve heard about defibrillators, but you don’t quite know how they work, what they do, how they can help you, and how much they cost? It could be incredibly easy of us to say that they are one of the most important pieces of medical technology around the world.
Why? Well because it is.
But we like to make sure that anyone and everyone knows what they are, what they do and why they are so important.
A defibrillator, or AED (automated external defibrillator), is a battery powered, small, lightweight device that analyses a person’s heart rhythm and can recognise irregular heart rhythms such as ventricular fibrillation (VF) or ventricular tachycardia (VT) – also known as Sudden Cardiac Arrest.
Combined with the immediate application of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), a defibrillator is the only form of treatment for someone who has suffered a cardiac arrest. If used within 3-5 minutes of a person collapsing, their survival chances increase from 6% to 74%.
Without a defibrillator, survival chances decrease by approximately 10% per minute after a cardiac arrest.
So I'm trying to help raise the funds for our local community ( the yard ) so we can fund one of these defibrillators they cost over £1000 . I feel having one of these around our local area could help to save lives . So I'm doing my bit to help get one these are so important and I think they should be scattered around in all of our local centres
