First Move While Heart Attack Comes

After well understand about the heart attack’s warning signs. Now is the time to take first aid actions for survival. Here the ways you can follow:

  • Recognize the signals.
  • Stop whatever you're doing and sit or lie down.
  • If the signals last more than a few minutes, call the local emergency number. (Usually it's 911.)

If that's not possible, take the victim to the nearest hospital emergency room with emergency cardiac care. Since incorrect chest compressions can cause internal injuries, CPR should be performed only by someone who has taken a professional course.

CPR requires training, practice, and skill. This information is presented for the purpose of review for one who is trained. Keep in mind that anyone who performs CPR should pull on a pair of latex gloves if they're available.
