Could Drones Help Save People In Cardiac Arrest?

Good idea. I've been a volunteer paramedic for over 30 years, anything that decreases the time to first shock greatly increases the chances of surviving.

They have AED drones already. Think UK is testing them.

It's a good idea, the quicker a shock can be delivered, the better the odds of a good outcome are. One comment about the video, after the guy was shocked, he sat up and was hugging his daughter, I was a paramedic in the Dallas TX area for many years and have shocked a bunch of folks. I've never even had anyone regain consciousness, much less sit up and hug someone so I thought that was pretty funny.
