Let us spare a thought at the heart of our community

Saving a life is not just a matter of equipment, but also of ability. A special manikin for use during the practical cardiac arrest reanimation exercises was needed by the nurses of cardiology, cardio surgery and the coronary unit of the San Gerardo Hospital of Monza.

Saving a life is not just a matter of equipment, but also of ability. Defibrillators are becoming more and more widespread over the area, especially in places with greater numbers of people, but medical staff need constantly to repeat simulations in order to keep up levels of training and to maintain a level of synergy between the members of the team.


A special manikin for use during the practical cardiopulmonary and cardiac arrest reanimation exercises and for the defibrillation tests was needed by the nurses of cardiology, cardio surgery and the coronary unit of the San Gerardo Hospital of Monza for these repetitive exercises in maintaining training levels in the reanimation manoeuvres. The manikin will also allow for simulating emergency situations, to stimulate the synergy between the medical support teams, doctors, nurses, health support personnel.


Together with the Brianza per il Cuore Association, which since 1995 has been actively involved in the fight against cardiovascular illnesses through the involvement of the community, and with whom Mitsubishi Electric has collaborated in a solid manner for several years, a donation was made in the month of March 2017 for the supply of this precious item to the San Gerardo Hospital of Monza which will help to save many lives.
