A man was alive Wednesday afternoon thanks to a group effort after he went into cardiac arrest while playing hockey at the Ray Friel Arena.

An ICU nurse bystander provided CPR to the man in his 50s and staff of the arena administered two defibrillator shocks. Paramedics, who received the call at 12:48 p.m., delivered additional shocks and the man was conscious when he arrived at hospital, where he was reported in critical condition.

“I cannot over-emphasize the importance of bystander CPR and the use of public access defibrillators,” said Marc-Antoine Deschamps, superintendent of public information for the Ottawa Paramedic Service.

“Without the interventions of the bystanders, the nurse and the staff of the Ray Friel Centre, the outcome would have been different.”
