Chapter 1652: Encounter with Sudden Cardiac Arrest

On the other side.

After hanging up Luther's phone call, Joyce began to deal with the affairs of QR Intelligent Design Company. She had already arranged most of the work, and Luther had also sent some people to help her, making the arrangement very efficient.

She still needed to get some special materials, so she planned to go out and purchase them herself.

At noon, she drove to the Semiconductor Material Exhibition Center and ordered some rare professional items she needed, and then she drove to the city center.

In her memory, there was a pastry shop here with delicious cream puffs that weren't too sweet or greasy, and she used to love them. She planned to buy two boxes to bring home for Anderson to eat.

Sure enough, the shop was still there, and it hadn't changed at all in four years. She packed the cream puffs and walked out the door.

Suddenly, a crowd of people one meter ahead caused a commotion.

Someone shouted, "Oh no, the old man has collapsed!"

Following everyone's gaze, Joyce saw an old man lying on the ground, with his eyes tightly closed and his face turning purple. The old man was wearing a well-made, stiff suit, which was exquisite in craftsmanship and obviously not an ordinary person.

The white temples reminded Joyce of her grandfather. When her grandfather left the world with regret, she didn't even get a chance to recognize her own grandfather. It was always a regret.

Seeing the old man in front of her suddenly falling ill, Joyce separated from the crowd and walked forward.

"Everyone, let me take a look. I can provide emergency treatment. You call for an ambulance right away."

As she spoke, she had already knelt down, one knee on the ground.

She patted the old man's shoulders and called out in his ear, "Grandpa, wake up, wake up."

However, there was no response.

She also touched the old man's carotid artery, and found that his pulse was barely detectable.

She became tense, it was a sudden cardiac arrest.

Without hesitation, she quickly began chest compressions, trying to revive the old man's heart.

Someone next to her asked, "How is it, can he be saved?"

Joyce replied while performing chest compressions, "In cases of sudden cardiac arrest, the best chance of survival is within five minutes. If it is delayed, the brain will be damaged. If it persists for a long time, it will lead to brain death, which is irreversible. Call for an ambulance quickly and ask them to bring a defibrillator!"

"Okay."

The enthusiastic bystander quickly dialed the ambulance's number.

Fortunately, the incident happened in the city center, not far from the National Hospital. The ambulance arrived in four minutes.

A paramedic got off the ambulance, holding a defibrillator in his hand.

Joyce gave way to the paramedic, who attached the electrodes to the old man's chest and prepared to use the defibrillator.

Finally, the old man's heartbeat was restored.

Joyce was sweating profusely, she stood up and was about to leave.

But the paramedic asked, "Excuse me, can you come with us to the hospital? You seem very professional in emergency treatment. The hospital is quite busy today, and I'm the only one here. I'm afraid that if there is another emergency later, there won't be enough manpower. The hospital is very close, and it won't take you more than half an hour."

Joyce thought about it. She wasn't busy today, and it was still early.

She agreed, "Okay."

The paramedic lifted the old man onto the ambulance, and the bystanders helped.

Joyce followed them onto the ambulance.
