BPA Conducts Automated External Defibrillator Training for Gamcheon Port Workers

Busan Port Authority (BPA) conducted training on the use of automated external defibrillators (AED) for stevedores and port workers at Gamcheon Port to ensure a swift response in emergency situations such as cardiac arrest.

Busan Port Authority conducted automated external defibrillator (AED) training for personnel related to Gamcheon Port.

An automated external defibrillator is an emergency device that automatically assesses the heart condition of a patient who has suddenly experienced cardiac arrest and delivers an electric shock to revive them.

This training covered the following topics: ▲ How to use an automated external defibrillator (AED) ▲ The theory of chest compression resuscitation ▲ Practical training in both AED use and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The training focused on hands-on practice to maximize applicability in real-life situations.

Since July last year, Busan Port Authority has been operating automated external defibrillators (AEDs) at 11 locations in Gamcheon Port, including all entry gates.

Kang Junseok, President of BPA, stated, “Since emergencies such as cardiac arrest can occur anytime and anywhere, the golden time is crucial. We will continue to provide regular training for port personnel to ensure a swift response.”
