CPR is a tremendously powerful intervention for victims of cardiac arrest, the sudden loss of heart function that claims the lives of 475,000 Americans every year. Bystander CPR is an easily learned skill, and its immediate application in an emergency can double a victim’s chance of survival. The number one cause of preventable death after injury is bleeding.
