What is the problem

in non-hospital, public settings, where there is no skilled aid, no oxygen, and no equipment, almost 99 percent of victims are certain to die.

The prevalence of cardiovascular disorders and the rise in In-hospital and Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) instances continue to be a global issue. Cardiac arrest is an important health concern. Recent research indicates that cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide.

Survival rates range from 2 to 7 percent for out-of-hospital cardiac arrests with bystander-delivered Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and 15 to 20 percent for in-hospital cardiac arrests with CPR administered by trained clinicians.

Performing bystander CPR is one element that can boost the survival rate of patients with OHCA. Protocols for pediatric resuscitation differ for infants and children.

Mortality rates for infants and children having cardiac arrest outside of a hospital are greater than 90 percent, whereas mortality rates for infants and children experiencing cardiac arrest within a hospital are roughly 65 percent. Children have the potential to be saved with basic life support (BLS), often known as cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The bad news is that the success rate is much lower in animals.
