About this episode
During a highly televised NFL game, Damar Hamlin, a professional football player, experienced commotio cordis -- a rare, life-threatening condition that occurs when a blow to the chest disrupts the heart's rhythm and leads to sudden cardiac arrest. At that moment, Hamlin was considered clinically deceased because he wasn't breathing and didn't have a pulse.
In this Repertoire podcast, Jonathan Bowman, Senior Director of Alternate Care Markets at ZOLL talks with Scott Adams about how crucial it is to have AEDs accessible in public spaces, and to be prepared for sudden cardiac emergencies.
