Sudden cardiac arrest can happen anytime, anywhere. When it does, quick access to an automated external defibrillator (AED) and someone who knows cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) can be the difference between life and death. Winnipeg companies, organizations, and individuals now have the power to equip themselves with potentially lifesaving skills and equipment through AED and CPR Training in Winnipeg available across the city.
AED and CPR Skills Can Save Lives
An automated external defibrillator is a portable device that checks a person’s heart rhythm and delivers an electric shock, if needed, to help restore a normal rhythm after sudden cardiac arrest. CPR, which involves chest compressions and rescue breaths, helps pump blood and oxygen to vital organs when a person’s breathing or heartbeat has stopped. Using an AED Training Winnipeg and performing CPR within the first few minutes of collapse from sudden cardiac arrest can drastically improve someone’s chance of survival.
