John Stafford Geddes, BSc, MRCP, FRCP, FACC[1] (10 June 1939 - 8 October 2024) was a Northern Irish physician and cardiologist instrumental in the concept, design and realization of the first mobile coronary care ambulance utilizing a portable defibrillator[2] for use in emergency medicine and paramedic services in 1966.
He was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland, and educated in local schools before entering Queen's University Faculty of Medicine[3] in 1956. Graduating in 1963 he remained at the Royal Victoria Hospital as House Physician and Surgeon and then Senior House Officer from 1964 to 1966.[4]
In 1969 he was awarded a Fellowship in Experimental Electrophysiology at the University of Utah following his role in the concept, design and realization of the first mobile coronary care ambulance[5] in 1966.[6]
His numerous publications in the form of both textbooks and journals have added to the progress of cardiology, critical care medicine and emergency medical services throughout the 50 years since his initiation of the worlds first mobile cardiac care unit.[6]
Emigrating from Belfast to Canada in 1987, he joined the staff of the University of Manitoba, retiring full-time in 2000.[7]
John Geddes has since taken up permanent residence in Florida with Florence, his wife of 48 years, while residing near their two sons, Stephen and Johnny.[7]
