旁观者CPR挽救生命

If you haven’t improved your community, where people are not only having a chance but really are being resuscitated in higher numbers, then there’s no reason to get excited about post-resuscitation care. … The foundation has to be good bystander involvement.

旁观者CPR可以说是生存链中最重要的联系。曾经发表的每项研究都表明，旁观者心肺复苏率将使生存率增加2至3倍。…随着CPR的出现，我们有很大的机会很快训练很多人，因此我们有一个真正的机会来改变行为。

It’s the local champions… It’s the citizen who’s taken the time to train and learn, and receive that information and act and act well. That’s what’s making the difference.

The fact that somebody is doing something before we get there gives the patient a better positive chance at a recovery, it gives us something better to work with – it’s a perfused heart, it’s more susceptible to the medicines we give, the procedures that we’re able to perform, and the hope to have that positive outcome.

My passion in life…is to help educate the community, and everyone there, on what to do when something happens — so they don’t stand there feeling helpless. We want them to recognize an arrest, we want them to immediately activate the emergency medical system by calling 911, and then put their hands in the middle of the chest and push hard and fast. ... This is going to maximize the opportunity for survival.
