What follows is a recounting of something that happens every day. But it almost always only happens when someone steps up and performs Bystander CPR.
Why is it that Bystander CPR is performed only one third of the time?
Seriously, I'd like to have your opinion. We're trying to fix the problem, and while almost everybody says "Hey. That's a good idea. I need to get trained." it's rare to find a population that is more than 35% trained, and only a third of the cardiac arrest victims receive bystander CPR.
Here's the story of another save.
