HEMS Debrief – Cardiac Arrest Focus. #8, Michael Heller

Hello and welcome back to the Sydney HEMS debrief, focus on cardiac arrest.

This week, we are very excited to deep dive into defibrillation. Join us as we talk through the physics of defibrillation, what is needed to get defibrillation as good as it can be, and what to do when defibrillation is simply not working.

We are delighted to be joined this week by Michael Heller. Michael is a paramedic by background, who now works as a medical engineer focused on defibrillation. Michael studied Rescue Engineering in Germany, and combining his clinical background is now a defining expert voice on defibrillation, and an excellent educator.

Too, we are delighted to be joined again by CCP Jackie, the educator for the Sydney pre-hospital ECMO/cardiac arrest car. In this episode, Jackie reflects on her experience backing up crews attending cardiac arrests, and how this experience has shaped her appreciation of the importance of good and judicious defibrillation, the barriers to making this happen, and how we as providers can all improve our defibrillation practice.

We hope you enjoy this episode, and as ever please send any feedback to me (Sam).

Have a great week!

We are delighted to be sponsored by Corpuls - delivering high-tech and innovative equipment for emergency and intensive care medicine for over 35 years.
