The resuscitation of Danish professional soccer player Christian Eriksen on the pitch, in front of millions of people, is a chance to consider how the Countries could do better in the prevention and treatment of sudden cardiac death (SCD).
The now-famous video shows Eriksen collapse. He’s unresponsive; medics come immediately to his aid and begin cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). One shock from an automatic external defibrillator (AED) vanquishes his ventricular fibrillation (VF) and restores regular rhythm. Another video shows Eriksen conscious and awake as he is rolled off the field.
