In China, there are 544,000 sudden deaths each year. Cardiac arrest is one of the most common causes of sudden death, and 70% of cardiac arrests occur outside the hospital.[1,2] However, fewer than 1% of bystanders at cardiac arrest deaths in China are well-trained and capable of administering first aid.[3] Therefore, it is urgent to popularize first-aid knowledge in the Chinese population.
