JAKARTA – A native man Australia, Alistair Blake said he had a terrible time. He said he had been dead for 90 minutes of a heart attack before returning to life with the help of doctors.
Quoted by Indy100, Friday (10/14/2022), in January 2019, Blake’s wife Melinda discovered that her husband was snoring, which is a sign of death. However, Melinda remained calm by calling medical personnel and providing first aid.
While waiting for the ambulance and doctors to arrive, Blake said Melinda was doing CPR. This action was performed for 20 minutes until medical personnel arrived.
Just like Melinda, doctors also performed CPR and used a defibrillator (a device that affects the heart) on Blake, which was performed 10 to 12 times.
“Basically, I’ve been dead for 90 minutes,” said Blake, who revealed that doctors gave him the nickname ‘Lazarus’, someone who has risen from the dead.
Alistar Blake actually remembered nothing when he woke up a week later lying in bed at Frankston Hospital.
“I just remember sleeping Saturday night in my bed at home, and the next thing I remember waking up Thursday morning on a bed cart that took me from ICU to coronary care,” said Blake.
But what everyone wants to know is whether Blake’s death experience showed him anything, and the short answer is no.
“A lot of people asked me if I saw anything and the answer was no, I didn’t see anything. There are no bright lights, nothing like that,” said Blake.
Accidents like the one experienced by Alistar Blake are very rare and it happened thanks to the first aid provided by Melinda and the medical staff, or resuscitation. She can restore the function of the breath and the heart so that you can save your life.
CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) or also known as CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) is a medical care effort to restore the ability to breathe and circulate blood in the body.
With CPR, oxygenated blood will continue to flow to the brain and the rest of the body until the person receives additional medical attention.
