Cardioangel

Santiago de Compostela, Spain

Cardioangel is a public health initiative and technology-driven startup that operates the first network of trained volunteers capable of performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (RCP) to save lives during cardiac emergencies. The company leverages a mobile application called CARDI@NGEL, which enables users to register as 'cardi@ngels' via their smartphones. In the event of a cardiac arrest, a single click triggers an immediate alert to nearby registered volunteers who can respond quickly. The organization also promotes awareness about cardiac emergencies and supports rapid intervention through community training and digital tools, significantly improving survival rates when help is provided within minutes.
