Lifesaving Cardiac Care Equipment On Site On January 16, 2007, Sy Rooney, a 39-year employee working at Cummins’ Fridley, Minnesota facility, was assembling switchgear in the Systems Department. “The last thing I remember,” he said, “was feeling very weak and short of breath, so I sat down.” Sy suddenly collapsed, a victim of cardiac arrest. More than 300,000 persons die each year from sudden cardiac arrest in the U.S. alone. Restoring circulation as fast as possible improves one’s chances of survival. Sy’s co-workers immediately began cardiopulmonary resuscitation and called for the plant’s emergency response team. First responders quickly arrived, followed by the plant’s emergency medical technician, equipped with an automated external defibrillator (AED). Cummins had partnered with Cardiac Science to install AEDs and train responders at all global manufacturing plants, research facilities, and any other sites with 100 employees or more. (By the end of 2008, all facilities with 10 employees or more will be so equipped.) Sy’s condition by now was critical—unconscious, no breathing and no pulse; his face blue in color. So the EMT immediately applied the AED electrodes; the instrument automatically analyzed Sy’s condition and delivered a life-saving shock. Five weeks after the incident, Sy was back at his normal job. “Now I take the world day by day ... I didn’t even know we had AEDs, but they saved my life,” he said. “How can you put a price on that?” Safety Cummins has partnered with Cardiac Science to install automated external defibrillators and train responders at plants and other facilities. 77
