SCA: Do you know the signs?

Knowing the signs and symptoms of sudden cardiac arrest can help save a life.

Almost 90 percent of people who suffer out-of-hospital cardiac arrest die. CPR, especially if performed in the first few minutes of cardiac arrest, can double or triple a person’s chance of survival.¹ Bystander intervention with CPR and an automated external defibrillator (AED) in the first few minutes after collapse drastically improves outcomes.

Take time to learn the signs and symptoms of SCA and make sure you know where AEDs are located in your workplace and community. It could help save a life.
