What do you do in the event of a potentially life-threatening emergency such as fainting, heart attack, or stroke? Most people think of calling an ambulance for assistance. But in some emergencies, if the ambulance does not arrive in time, the victim is at risk of not being resuscitated.
According to the American Heart Association’s 2021-2022 annual report, cardiovascular disease kills 17 million people worldwide each year, and in the United States alone, the annual economic impact of heart disease and stroke is estimated to exceed $500 billion.
