Hands-Only CPR – Videos

On October 16th, the world is once again coming together to celebrate World Restart a Heart DayIt is an opportunity to emphasize the importance of bystander CPR. We at EMKF invite you to be part of this global campaign! Join us and our global partners in sharing a crucial message: Anyone can do basic CPR and that if done within the first minutes of a cardiac arrest, it double someone’s chances of survival.

If you see a teen or adult suddenly collapse, hands-only CPR is the recommended form of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). It not only increases the likelihood of surviving breathing and cardiac emergencies that occur outside of medical settings, but it’s simple to learn and easy to remember.
