Swift Action Saves Life of Pakistani Umrah Performer

Saudi Red Crescent Authority (SRCA) ambulance teams in Makkah swiftly responded to a medical emergency at the Grand Mosque of Makkah, successfully reviving a Pakistani Umrah performer who had lost consciousness and suffered cardiac arrest.

The SRCA received an alert at 11:19 AM today, reporting an unconscious Umrah performer at the King Fahd Walkway. Ambulance teams were immediately dispatched to the scene and found the Umrah performer, a man in his 50s, unresponsive.

Utilizing the defibrillator (AED) available at the Grand Mosque, the SRCA team promptly initiated cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) using the “LUCAS” device. Their timely intervention restored the Umrah performer’s pulse, and he was subsequently transported to a medical facility for further care.

The remarkable rescue, accomplished within a record response time of one minute, underscores the dedication and professionalism of the SRCA’s emergency medical services.
