Today's topic is about diagnosis and investigation of heart failure.
One of the guys in the fitness class, and there were about 25 people that morning, at the beach, he suffered a sudden cardiac arrest and, yeah, he was one of my best mates, this guy, and he dropped at the end of the session. And my training from the surf club days jumped in and we made sure we rang 000, and an ambulance was on the way, and I started resuscitating him. The ambulance took about 13-14 minutes to turn up. I kept recussing him. Didn't get a result.
And the short of it was that he had an electrical issue with his heart. And the only thing that was going to restart the heart was a defibrillator. I didn't have one there... and I didn't have one because, when I was in the surf club in the eighties and nineties, there were no defibs at surf clubs.
