Sounds like the prompt action of the medics and maybe the defibulator at the ground gave him a fighting chance.

Why?
Be too much of a risk if it turns out he has a dodgy heart conditon or something like that imo. |

And Bolton might struggle to get any insurance for him.

We will all start to see more AEDs ( defibulators ) situated around the towns and villages of Wiltshire which can be used buy members of the public, they really can be the difference between life and death. Hope Muamba makes a full recovery. |

They are so easy to use, used them many times.
As you say notts, they should be easily accesible to use.

Still find it really surprising that a lot of Sports clubs and leisure centres don't have them as like you say Tans they are easy enough to use. There is a big surge at present to get them out there in the community so good for everyone. Sounds like Muamba is over the critical stage so fingers crossed for him.

I work the fire brigade and we used them for co responding.
Used them at the gym once when the guy on the treadmill next to me collapsed. Nasty stuff

Tans, you probably know about this. I read a few books which were essentially a collection of factual blogs written by an anonymous paramedic.
I remember he said defribs were obviously lifesaving for getting a heart back to sinus rhythm from irregular rhythms but practically useless for restarting a heart that has flatlined.
Do I remember right?

correct, it is only useful for specific arrythmias (vt/vf)! If someone was in asystole the defib would not let you shock the patient |
