Among India’s population, less than two per cent people are aware of CPR.
Every minute 112 people are succumbing to cardiac arrest.
We do not have a robust emergency medical system and ambulances can’t reach in the first three minutes, when CPR can be life-saving.
Almost 80-82 Percent people from heart attacks dies outside hospitals.
In some countries, with increasing practice of CPR it has been found that 40-60 per cent people could be saved.
With each minute the chances of survival decreases by 7 to 10 minutes. If we don’t immediately give CPR, the patient will have brain injury.
About 10% of the deaths in India is due to sudden cardiac arrest which is also the most common factor of death in the world.
With nearly 75 per cent population aged below 50 years at risk of suffering from cardiac arrest, heart complications are a major endemic that India cannot afford to ignore.
Studies by medical professionals across the country indicate that at least 25 percent of Indians aged below 40-years are at the risk of suffering from heart attack or any other serious heart-related complications; and this risk increases to 50 percent of population between 40 and 50 years of age.
