What are you to do if you have a heart attack while you are alone?
The Johnson City Medical Center staff actually discovered this
and did an in-depth study on it in our ICU The two individuals that
discovered this then did an article on it .. had it published and have
even had it incorporated into ACLS and CPR classes.
It is very true and has and does work. It is called cough CPR. A
cardiologist says it's the truth ... For your info ...If everyone who
gets
this sends it to 10 people, you can bet that we'll save at least one
life.
Read This...It could save your life! Let's say it's 6:15 p.m. and
you're
driving home (alone of course), after an usually hard day on the job.
You're
really tired, upset and frustrated. Suddenly you start experiencing
severe
pain in your chest that starts to radiate out into
your arm and up into your jaw. You are only about five miles from the
hospital nearest your home. Unfortunately you don't know if you'll be
able to make it that far.
What can you do? You've been trained in CPR but the guy that taught
the
course, didn't tell you what to do if it happened to yourself.
Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack,
this article seemed to be in order. Without help, the person
whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint,
has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness.
However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and
very
vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the
cough
must be deep and prolonged,
as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a
cough
must be repeated about very two seconds without let up until help
arrives,
or until the heart is felt to be beating
normally again.
Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze
the
heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the
heart
also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims
can
get to a hospital. Tell as many other people as possible about this,
it
could save their lives!
