What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Summary in non-technical language Aim(s) of the research We are working on a way to use drones to deliver Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) - devices that help restart a person's heart by giving it an electric shock. These drones will bring AEDs to people helping someone having a cardiac arrest outside of a hospital setting. Our goal is to make sure everything works smoothly, from the time the emergency call is made to when the AED helps the patient. This research is important because it will help us find out the best process to deliver AEDs by drone and what challenges might come up. Background to the research A cardiac arrest happens when a person's heart suddenly stops, which stops blood from getting to their organs. Acting fast is very important. In the UK, less than 10% of people survive cardiac arrests because it often takes too long to get them the help they need. AEDs
