When Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest Strikes, Being Prepared is Critical. Everyone needs to be familiar with the latest American Heart Association latest CPR guidelines and be prepared for the situation

Woodbridge, NJ -- (SBWire) -- 12/29/2011 --Every year 300,000 people in the United States alone experience out-of-hospital sudden cardiac arrest. Unfortunately, the experience will claim the lives of 92% of these victims. A victim's best chance is usually revival through bystander Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR).

Bystander CPR within the first 4 minutes can double or even triple a victims chances of survival, but less than one third of victims will receive the life saving procedure. That's why companies like the American Healthcare Institute offer Premium Online CPR certification programs both on and off the web.

In a critical situation where someone's life hangs in the balance, the best chance for survival can be had by a clear understanding of the best CPR practices to date. CPR is going to help a victim's odds in all cases, but the most up to date information possible boosts the odds of survival still further.

That's why it's important to choose a training program like the Premium CPR Online Certification Program by the American Healthcare Institute.
