24.01.2022 "We've made so many exciting discoveries and hopefully a lot more to come thanks to people like you..." Dr Chris Roche. . A few months ago we shared that we needed $5,000 more to fund the next stage of the life-saving work Dr Chris Roche is doing. Thanks to the generosity of all our facebook followers we raised $1,200 and we are so grateful for all your support! . One of our followers, Rachel's Runners has set the task of raising the remaining amount by getting together team...s to run 136km, a race she herself had signed up to complete over a few days prior to collapsing from a heart episode and devastatingly being told she can no longer run. Rachel's passion and truly inspiring story has helped her team already raise close to $1300 and we are all just so grateful. . Heart Research Australia would like to join Dr Chris Roche in thanking Rachel, all her runners and those of you who so generously have helped contribute to Chris receiving the final funding he needs for the next stage of his work. .

17.01.2022 Having the defibrillator available and the actions of my Coles colleagues when I passed out are the reasons I survived my cardiac arrest. Ricki Avery . Typically less than 10% of people survive an out of hospital cardiac arrest. Not receiving CPR or AED shock, their chances of survival drop by 10% every minute. . Seconds count in a cardiac arrest. CALL, PUSH, SHOCK.... . It's the quick thinking of colleagues and the availability of a defibrillator that makes Ricki one of the lucky 10% who survived. . Coles supermarkets have thankfully recently installed ZOLL AED Plus defibrillators in all their supermarkets and Ricki says they are regularly used in an emergency. . Would you know what to do if someone near you suffered a sudden cardiac arrest? Visit https://restartaheart.net/ for more information and remember CALL, PUSH, SHOCK. . Thank you so much Ricki & Zoll for allowing us to share this great story, we are so grateful to Ricki's colleagues and Coles for installing Defibillators in their stores enabling this story to have such such a wonderful outcome. .
