Description
Did you know, if no CPR is performed, it only takes three to four minutes for the person to become brain dead due to a lack of oxygen? But what is CPR and how do you do it? CPR stands for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation. It is an emergency procedure used in an effort to manually preserve intact brain function of a person who is in cardiac arrest.
Did you know that performing this life-saving procedure is not just for healthcare professionals? Every day, thousands of people suffer a cardiac arrest which is an irregular and often fatal heart rhythm. While these individuals need immediate CPR to help save their lives, data shows that most of these emergencies occur outside of a hospital.

Resuscitation and First Aid

If it is started soon after the heart has stopped beating, CPR is crucial in helping increase the person’s chances of survival.
