the fediverse has a heartbeat
  • No. You yell clear before defibrillation because of hypothetical risk. The likelihood that a person actually received a significant shock is tremendously low, and even lower if they are wearing gloves.

    As a side note, you do not yell clear before juicing them. You charge the defibrillator while continuing to give cpr, and then once it is charged, you clear, analyse the rhythm, and if it is shockable, ensure everyone is clear and deliver the shock. This protocol is to minimise the amount of time the arrested patient goes without chest compressions.

  • Nah. Defibrillators use direct current. Unless they are covered in salt water, there is no reason for the electricity to go anywhere other than in a relatively straight line
