early resuscitation

Early resuscitation involves quickly acting to support someone who isn’t breathing or whose heart has stopped. This includes providing chest compressions, called CPR, to manually pump blood and oxygen through the body, and using a defibrillator when necessary to restore normal heart rhythm. The goal is to maintain circulation and oxygen delivery until advanced medical help arrives. Prompt initial response can significantly improve the chances of survival and reduce the risk of long-term damage. The key is acting immediately, staying calm, and following proper techniques until professional help takes over.
