    cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

    Why we need to learn CPR:


    ● 45% of heart attacks occur amongst people under 65 years of age
    ● 95% of untreated cardiac arrest victims die before reaching the hospital
    ● 1,000 people are killed every day from sudden cardiac arrest
    ● there are 700,000 annual cardiac arrest victims in North America and Europe
    ● If bystander CPR is not provided, a sudden cardiac arrest victim's chances of
    survival fall 7 percent to 10 percent for every minute of delay until defibrillation
