Topic: Sudden Cardiac Arrest
CPR/AED Background Facts…from American Heart Association Reports …
Approximately 359,000 of all annual adult coronary heart disease deaths in the U.S. are due to sudden cardiac arrest, suffered outside the hospital setting and in hospital emergency departments. About 900 Americans die every day due to sudden cardiac arrest. About 75 to 80 percent of all out-of-hospital cardiac arrests happen at home, so being trained to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) can mean the difference between life and death for a loved one. In 2011 approximately 90 percent of sudden cardiac arrest victims died before reaching the hospital.
