Drones aren't just for cops. They can be used to save someone's life.
A Swedish man survived a brush with death due to the quick actions of a few good Samaritans and an emergency medical drone, according to a press release from dronemaker Everdrone.
The man had a heart attack while shoveling snow outside of his home. The doctor was driving by when he saw the man collapse. The doctor asked a bystander to call for help.
Ali said that he saw something flying above his head minutes later. It was a drone with a defibrilator.
Life-saving helicopter.
The emergency medical aerial delivery service was created and operated by Everdrone. Within minutes, the company was able to deliver a defibrillated Ali.
The doctor was able to save the 71 year olds life.
The patient said in the release that he was thankful for the new technology and the quick delivery of the defibrillator. I probably wouldn't be here if it wasn't for the drone.
Currently, the service is only offered in Sweden. The service will be expanded to more locations in Europe this year.
It is cool to see cyberpunk solutions to critical health incidents. It is better than the drones with deadly weapons attached to them.
For the first time in medical history, an autonomously-piloted drone can save a patient's life.
