FACTS

In 2015, cardiac arrest mortality in the US was 366,807. CPR, especially if administered immediately after cardiac arrest, can double or triple a person’s chance of survival. About 90 percent of people who experience an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest die.

​

There are about 10,000 cardiac arrests in the workplace each year in the United States, according to a report from the US Occupational Safety & Health Administration.

​

Did you know: only 50% of people can locate an automated external defibrillator (AED) at work?

​

With 10,000 cardiac arrests annually in the workplace, knowing this small piece of information has the potential to save thousands of lives.
