    They are working also on creating an open source AED device, which no matter where you live would be something useful.

        Oh, that’s useful. But how many people would you say have an AED with an easy range of their home?

          A surprising amount when it comes to Sweden, actually! I believe there’s a significant educational gap here, with CPR courses trying to spread the word about resources on how to locate your nearest AED.

          This applies to urban environments of course, with suburban and rural being a different story.

          To answer the question I think you’re posing - yes, this device could be useful in Sweden.
