The FIES Group company offers a comprehensive service to create cardioprotected spaces

Sudden death is one of the most frequent causes of death in developed countries. According to data from the World Health Organization (WHO), there are around 400,000 cases of cardiac arrest each year in Europe. For its part, the Ministry of Health estimates that in Spain there are about 50,000 cardiac arrests annually, with 45,000 deaths from this cause. 'The early initiation of cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and rapid defibrillation through the use of a defibrillator, improve the survival rate in more than 70% of cases,' says Carles Galán, one of the professionals from the FIES Group, a recognized center and accredited by the Catalan Council for Resuscitation and by the Department of Health of the Generalitat de Catalunya for training in basic life support and the use of the automated external defibrillator. '' The AED is an extremely simple to use current-generating device that, in a very safe and effective way, can deliver, when necessary, a controlled electric shock to the heart to reverse a malignant cardiac arrhythmia, a situation of imminent death, in the defibrillator is the only effective treatment ' , says Antoni Albiach, one of the health professionals of the FIES Group. 'An AED in the workplace, in the sports club, in school, in the shopping center, on the beach, and in many other locations, together with a staff trained to know how to handle it, can make the difference between life and death, ' adds Albiach.
