 Emergencies don’t come with a notice, So Know CPR and save lives.

Firstly We should all know what is Heart Attack?
A heart attack usually occurs when a blood clot blocks blood flow to the heart. Without blood, tissue loses oxygen and dies.

What to do when heart stops breathing?
When someone get heart attack, In such situation to give immediate CPR can increase double or triple chances of survival after cardiac arrest.
 So many of times we had heard that this person has died following heart attack.
According to the Indian Heart Association, 50% of all heart attacks in Indians occur under 50 years of age and 25% of all heart attacks in Indians occur under 40 years of age.
  In India, more than 17 Lakh
 people die every year due to
 heart diseases and by 2030, the
 figure is expected to increase
 with 2.3 crore deaths. Around 26
 percent of total deaths in India
 occur due to non-communicable
 diseases (NCD), largely referred

 diabetes.
  
CARDIOPULMONARY RESUSCITATION is an emergency procedure that combines chest compressions often with artificial ventilation in an effort to manually preserve intact brain function until further measures are taken to restore spontaneous blood circulation and breathing in a person who is in cardiac arrest.
