Ischemic heart disease is the leading cause of death in the world. In Pakistan the number is huge, and is not different from all other countries in the world where figures for high mortality due to Cardiovascular disease are reported.
These patients become victim of cardiac arrest, and resuscitation depends on knowledge of resuscitation of the by-stander, if cardiac arrest happens outside the hospital.
Basic Life support training is mandatory, to assess the victim of cardiac arrest and start chest compressions for resuscitation. To meet this requirement, all adults in the community from age 15 and above are recommended to do basic life support training.
