Learn CPR and Defibrillator training
More people need CPR training. Not enough people do. I am an ex Nurse and Firefighter and seen first hand the benefits of learning CPR ect. I now have my First Aid Instructor qualification and teach Basic Life Support-CPR-Defibrillator training. My own training has helped me in 2 different situations

He was 44 years old and playing 5-a-side football in a local sports centre when he collapsed without warning. Thank goodness it happened there of all places however, as the swift actions of his team

Boston Scientific I/v cardioverter) defibrillator question
Hi looking for first experiences of having the above device fitted. I'm one week on from the implant and the soreness from the operation is settling down. I am still sleeping on my right side which is fine. But when I am lying flat the box starts firing off, I guess in cardioverter mode. It's set

Day 46 in hospital and finally discharged
Well as promised an update and outcome of sorts. Day 46 in my local hospital CCU, up at 5.00am for an early prep for an op. I was first admitted on January 27th following a syncope (collapse) while running at myocal Parkrun. 3 days later a ventricular tachycardia was picked up on my implanted loop
