Earlier ALS Saves Firefighters Life!

     

Tuesday, March 10, 2009 A 52 year old F-282 (Puget Sound Federal Fire Fighters) firefighter from Station 61 (U.S.N. Sub-Base Bangor) suffered a cardiac arrest while conducting training with Station 77 (Poulsbo, WA) personnel on Friday afternoon (3/6). The firefighter dropped right in front of a Paramedic/Firefighter who had also been participating in the drill. Immediate life saving A.L.S. actions were taken including defibrillation. The firefighter was transported to Harrison Medical Center. He is reported to be recovering in the I.C.U. at Harrison Medical Center in Bremerton. I understand that there were several occluded arteries and that the firefighter has had some type of invasive intervention stints and may possibly be a candidate for coronary artery bypass surgery.
