How does Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation(CPR) perform in our lives?

Learning CPR will hinder some major cardiac threats until professional medical help arrives. There have been several cases where 9/10 people die outside hospital premises due to cardiac arrests. If CPR is done right away (within the first few minutes), the survival rate increases twice or thrice.

How does CPR save lives?

During cardiac arrest, the heart stops pumping blood for the rest of the body, and as a result, deaths occur without any medical treatment. In such circumstances, mimicking chest compressions helps maintain blood flow throughout the body. 

Learning CPR will help save a person in major accidents like drowning, or heart attacks. 

Who can perform CPR?

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), one doesn’t need any formal training to conduct CPR. Right at the centre of the chest, you need to push down hard and fast  at a rate of 100 to 120 pushes a minute. This technique refers to 'hands-only’ and doesn’t involve a mouth-to-mouth technique.
