Restart A Heart day 2021 14:40 - Oct 16 with 368 views | BlueBadger | Appreciate that 20 minutes before kick off isn't an IDEAL time to post this, but it's Restart A Heart day today. Currently in the UK, if you suffer an out of hospital cardiac arrest, fewer than 1 in 10 people will survive to return home. All evidence suggests that good, prompt chest compressions and ealy shock from a defibrillator can and do make a difference to survival rates. Kow where your community defibs are folks, support your local first responders, get involved and most importantly LEARN CPR. https://www.resus.org.uk/get-involved/restart-heart-day https://www.bhf.org.uk/how-you-can-help/how-to-save-a-life/how-to-do-cpr | |

Indeed. And simply surviving to return home is not always an ideal outcome either - prompt treatment in all conditions is likely to reduce the potential for long-term effects. Thanks for sharing, Badger. | |

Around 9%, to be strictly accurate. | |
