Why Learn CPR?
The stats speak for themselves:
-
- 350,000 – the estimated number of heart attacks that occur out of hospitals in the United States every year as reported by the American Heart Association.
- 2–3 times better chance of survival if effective CPR is administered during the initial minutes of cardiac arrest.
- 39%-44% of bystanders will perform CPR.
- 70% of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) occur at home
- 90% of people who suffer sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) die before they reach a hospital or medical care facility.
