Philips Defibulator
Original poster: "Jim Mora" <jmora@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Hi All.
I am wonder if a defib would be a worthwhile safety addition in our
trade. Fire extinguishers and at times HV gloves and bang sticks are
worth while. I don't recall anyone mentioning a defibrillator on hand.
As I recall electric shock sends the heart into ventricular
fibrillation (chaos on the scope). 5 minutes of this is damaging,
perhaps fatal to the victim.
I any members are MD's or paramedics, your opinion would be welcome.
Regards,
Jim Mora
