NHPD officers arrived on the scene prior to the arrival of East Central EMS personnel. Officer Pope immediately deployed the Automated External Defibrillator (AED) from his patrol vehicle, administered one shock, and performed CPR until paramedic crews took over care.<\/p>\n<p>A short time later, the patient regained a pulse and was transported to a local hospital for continued treatment, with a return to baseline expected.<\/p>\n<p>The AED utilized by Officer Pope was recently placed in service thanks to local businesses that provided donations to fund AED purchases for NHPD vehicles. Studies show that early CPR and rapid defibrillation are critical factors in surviving sudden cardiac arrest.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In cardiac arrest emergencies, every second counts,&#8221; said Julie Ehle, EMS Training Captain for East Central Fire and EMS Territory. &#8220;This patient\u2019s outcome demonstrates the direct impact of our business community&#8217;s support. Equipping law enforcement officers\u2014who are often first to arrive on scene\u2014with AEDs saves lives.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>East Central Fire\/EMS Territory aims to expand the program to ensure every local patrol vehicle is equipped with a defibrillator. Businesses or community members interested in donating to support future AED purchases are encouraged to contact East Central Fire\/EMS Territory at <a
