After cardiac arrest occurs blood stops being circulated to the vital organs and the person will  go unconscious. Unless CPR is started quickly death will occur within minutes.

Every year 30,000 people receive resuscitation for an out of hospital cardiac arrest in the UK but only one in ten survive to go home from hospital

Bystander CPR is vital in the chain of survival

When you find someone unresponsive and not breathing normally call 999 start CPR and use a defibrillator if available
