Protect your crew from the world's biggest killer!
Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) is the world's biggest killer, killing over 3 million people worldwide every year. Even on land the chances of the emergency services reaching a victim in time are slim, at sea the chances are zero.
The only proven way to treat SCA is by delivering an electric shock to the heart to restore a normal heart rhythm. This is called defibrillation and can make the difference between saving a life and having a victim die. If a victim receives defibrillation within the vital first 3 minutes the chances of survival are increased by up to a staggering 70%.
Seafarer's Union hails LIFEFORCE® and calls for defibrillators on all ships.
