I wish people would stop writing incorrect information about what medical devices do.  As you wrote in chapter 3 page 33, "When a patient's heart stopped, the doctor would press the pads against their chest and use the electric charge to bring them back to life."  This is incorrect information.  A defibrillator is used to correct an abnormal heart rhythm not used when there is no rhythm at all.
So maybe the next time you chose to write a book, you will consult a doctor or nurse when you make reference to a piece of medical equipment.

...It's not nearly as bad as the hoards of books, films and TV shows that show CPR to be an effective way of restarting someone's heart. It very rarely works in real life.
