CARTHAGE â Deputy Jay Morrow and Trooper Alexis Egeberg were in initial stages of giving CPR when the defibrillator actually advised them to shock the heart, marking a somewhat rare occurrence that was just the beginning of their recent life-saving effort.
Mr. Morrow, a deputy in Jefferson County for six years, and Ms. Egeberg, a trooper in Carthage for three, are being recognized for their marathon effort in saving a 62-year-old man in Carthage. It took a shock from an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) and nearly 15 minutes of CPR before a pulse was recognized.
AEDs have become so user-friendly that even with no experience, someone using them can be walked through it by the machine, which gives voice instructions on where to place the pads on the chest and when to administer a shock. It even keeps a beat going while doing chest compressions.
