In fact, there are many reasons for cardiac arrest. At present, heart disease is the biggest killer threatening mankind. Patients with heart disease are more prone to cardiac arrest. Once cardiac arrest will threaten their lives, if not rescued in time, they may die in a short time.
What is the most effective way to rescue cardiac arrest?
In case of cardiac arrest, you should be rescued in time. If the best rescue time is missed, the patient's life may be threatened. The earlier the cardiac arrest, the better. If it can be rescued in a short time, the success rate of rescue is very high, and the later the rescue time, the greater the harm to patients. If it can be rescued in time within 10 minutes, the success rate is very high.
Because the brain is prone to ischemia and hypoxia more than two minutes after cardiac arrest, it will cause certain damage to brain tissue, and 4-5 minutes is the best rescue time. Most patients with cardiac arrest occur outside the hospital. On the way to the hospital, they missed the best rescue time, leading to cardiac arrest, and the success rate of patient rescue was very low.
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is the most effective first aid method for cardiac arrest at present, so everyone should master the correct CPR method. In case of cardiac arrest, you should call 120 emergency number in time, and take basic rescue such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation in time. If we can take timely and correct emergency rescue measures before the arrival of 120, we can create better conditions for treatment and effectively reduce the mortality and disability rate.
When the patient has cardiac arrest, we must first ensure the safety of the scene and avoid the secondary injury of the patient. At the same time, you can pat the patient's shoulder with both hands to call the other party, and immediately carry out cardiopulmonary resuscitation until the patient regains consciousness or the ambulance arrives at the scene.
