Saudi German Hospital Aseer saves Moshabab’s life

following cardiac arrest

27 December 2023- In a record time, medical professionals successfully inserted a cardiac stent
into the coronary artery of a patient – who experienced a cardiac arrest due to a malignant
ventricular arrhythmia – and ultimately rescued him from death at Saudi German Hospital Aseer.

Moshabab, a 43-year-old man, accompanied his father who was receiving medical care at Saudi
German Hospital Aseer. Moshabab unexpectedly lost consciousness while trying to grab a hot
beverage from a café inside the hospital.

A doctor, by chance standing near Moshabab, immediately initiated cardiopulmonary resuscitation
(CPR) measures and ordered the transfer of Moshabab to the emergency department for further

treatment.

The resuscitation of Moshabab lasted for four minutes. Subsequent diagnostic examinations

revealed a severe blockage in the left anterior descending coronary artery, necessitating a cardiac
catheterization.

As Moshabab’s health improved, doctors removed a ventilator. Moshabab is now continuing his
recovery in the cardiac care unit (CCU).

Saudi German Hospital Aseer has both Arab and foreign consultants across a wide range of
specialities and access to the latest treatment methods and technologies.
