Yes if the heart has flatlined completely then it won’t be started again by AED. But if they are in cardiac arrest then the heart rate is erratic and doesn’t function normally but can be returned to normal with a defibrillator.

If you’re doing chest compressions to save someone who has stopped breathing there roughly a 10% chance they will survive but a 0% chance if you don’t So it’s often worth it anyway.
However it does keep the blood flowing and can prevent brain damage until a defibrillator is available which has a much higher chance of saving someone who has stopped breathing.
The heart is also protected by the lungs and breast plate.
Works fine for me on iPhone
This is a great security feature. Is it an app?

Does anyone here have the capability to implement this? Is it a Lemmy admin thing or can the app devs do something?
What’s the rush? Rome wasn’t built in a day. If people are happy (enough) with it now it will grow with time and at the pace it should.
If things get too big too quickly then the cake will always collapse.
I like the amount of content here right now and things will diversify gradually over time.
Most people seem to forget their Reddit accounts were more than 8,9,10+ years old and a lot changed over that period.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How many communities are you blocking?English
104·3 years agoI just blocked Politics.
I felt that politics posts and discussions on reddit led to a separation of communities and echo chamber when platforms like that an Lemmy would ideally, be politics free.
It leads to a more friendly positive and inclusive place to be.
I think it would be impossible to keep politics off Lemmy so best I can do for now is filter it out.
Isn’t this the opposite of the guy who said he needed to survive 3 days without pooping?




This is called confirmation bias
