- Abstract:
- The efficiency of first aid resuscitation is affirmed by many publications. In a questionnaire of the division of Cardiology of the Department of Internal Medicine, Graz and the Styrian Heart Patient Society distributed during the course of the Graz spring fair 1993 the population was approached as to first aid in cardiac arrest. 550 subjects responded to answer this circular for assessment dividing the population statistically in 4 different age groups showing differences among male and female and country and city dwellers. It has been shown that general first aid resuscitation has been known sufficiently, whereas special cardiorespiratory procedures (such as artificial respiration or cardiac massage) were unknown to most.
