SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, Feb. 12 (EUROPE PRESS) –
The Canary Emergency Service (SUC) has been able to recover this Saturday a 75-year-old passenger who suffered a cardiorespiratory arrest during a flight that had to be diverted to Tenerife South Airport.
As reported by 112 Canarias, Airport Coordination personnel alerted at 1:30 p.m. that a plane had been diverted to the island due to a health emergency involving one of the passengers.
A sanitized ambulance went to the airport, whose staff verified that the man was in cardiorespiratory arrest, for which they began basic and advanced resuscitation maneuvers, managing to reverse the arrest.
In this sense, given that the base of the SUC’s medicalized helicopter is located at the same airport, the health team was activated to collaborate with the ambulance personnel and transfer the man to the Nuestra Señora de la Candelaria University Hospital, where he was admitted to hospital. Serious condition.
