SCA Survivor: Danny Berger
Thanks to its investment in AEDs, Utah
State was prepared when Danny Berger
collapsed during basketball practice. Head
trainer Mike Williams, with an assist from
the basketball team’s manager, saved
Danny’s life with a Powerheart® AED.
“I started CPR on Danny and the AED was
there within a minute of the time Danny
hit the oor,” Williams says. “The AED did
the analyzing and then it shocked him.
I continued with the CPR and checked his
pulse. By the time the EMTs were entering
the building, Danny’s heartbeat had come
back strong.”
Preparation was the key to saving Berger’s
life. Williams points out that the basketball
team’s manager had run to get the AED as
soon as Berger collapsed, even before
Williams had called for it. The EMTs from
the on-campus re department arrived
quickly. They had Berger out of the building
and on the way to the hospital less than
10 minutes after he’d collapsed.
