Problem | Description | Solution | Equipment | | Sudden Cardiac Arrest | Patient collapses due to irregularity of the heart beating rhythm (shivering instead of beating). It can happen to anyone, at any age. Sun, heat and physical fatigue, among others, are some of the risk factors. The electrical activity of the heart needs to be restored to its normal rhythm. | On-site immediate defibrillation (electrical shock) by an AED (Automated External Defibrillator). | AEDPlus ZOLL, USA | | | | | | | | No pulse, no electrical activity of the heart (asystole). CPR (chest compression is needed to resuscitate (revive) the heart. Only after regaining the electrical activity of the heart, a shock can be given. Almost 60% of patients need CPR prior to the shock, and 100% need CPR during the whole process. | Manual CPR has a lot of limitations and is not that effective. An automated Chest Compression Device solves this issue. | AutoPulse ZOLL, USA | | | | | | | Pulse & Oxygen Concentration Problems | When a worker feels fatigue, faints, or unwell, we always need to check pulse and blood oxygen saturation level. | Practical, portable and handy Pulse Oximeters are needed. | Pulse Oximeters NONIN, USA | | | | | | | Hearing Problems | Some industries need to assess the hearing ability of workers (screening), or, workers are more prone to get hearing problems in some industries. | Routine on-site hearing screening is needed. | Audiometers ENTOMED, Sweden | | | | | | | Fractures, Broken Bones,Bleeding or debris in the Eyes | Very common problems in industrial, construction and manufacturing environments
| Fractured or broken bones need to be splinted. Heavy bleeding needs a haemostatic agent on the site. Eyes should be protected. | Splints, Cellox Goggles SAM MEDICAL, USA |
