CPR FACTS AND STATS

BYSTANDER CPR IMPROVES SURVIVAL

According to 2014 data, nearly 45 percent of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest victims survived when bystander CPR was administered.
The majority of Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrests (OHCA) occurs at public settings (18.8 percent), mostly homes/residences (69.5%) and nursing homes (11.7%).

IN ONE YEAR ALONE, 475,000 AMERICANS DIE FROM A CARDIAC ARREST

Globally, cardiac arrest claims more lives than colorectal cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, influenza, pneumonia, auto accidents, HIV, firearms, and house fires combined.

MORE THAN 350,000 CARDIAC ARRESTS OCCUR OUTSIDE OF THE HOSPITAL EACH YEAR

HELP IS NEEDED IMMEDIATELY TO INCREASE THE CHANCE OF SURVIVAL

Unfortunately, only about 46% of people who experience an OHCA get the immediate help that they need before professional help arrives. The 2017 Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics state that among the 356,000 OHCA that occurred, 45.7% (or 46%) received bystander CPR.
