Defibrillators are the most important lifelines for a person suffering from a sudden cardiac arrest. Having one nearby can be a matter of life or death for the victim.

But what if someone you loved was in need of a defibrillator and you come to find out that it had been vandalised beyond repair?

Just days ago, on Sunday 17th October 2021, a fan required urgent medical attention during a football match between Newcastle United and Tottenham.

During the 41st minute, the referee at the time, Andre Marriner, was alerted to the issue in the East Stand and made the judgement call to suspend the match for 20 minutes to allow medical staff to get to the stand in time.

Luckily, the stadium had a defibrillator on standby allowing medics to quickly stabilise their condition before rushing them to the hospital. Our thoughts are with the fan and wish them a speedy recovery:

Cardiac arrests can strike when you least expect it. Did you know, that in the UK alone, there are 30,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCA) every year?

The greater problem is that only 1 in every 10 cardiac arrest victims survive an OHCA. If more people had knowledge about how they can access a defibrillator in times of need, the survival rate could be increased.

In fact, in the UK, only 10% of people that experience a cardiac arrest outside of hospitals survive, which means that having a working defibrillator is absolutely critical for every business and sports’ club in the land.
