Can you
save a life ?
In an emergency, when every
second is critical,

According to recent
statistics sudden cardiac
arrest is rapidly
becoming the leading
cause of death

Once the heart ceases to
function, a healthy human
brain may survive without
oxygen for up to 4 minutes
without suffering any
permanent damage.

Unfortunately, a typical
EMS response may take
20 ,30 or even 50 minutes
in Pakistan.

It is during those critical
minutes that CPR can provide
oxygenated blood to the
victim's brain and the heart,
dramatically increasing his
chance of survival. 55
