According to the American Heart Association, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is an emergency lifesaving procedure performed when the heart stops beating . This practice typically combines chest compressions and artificial ventilation to save a person's life.
Every year, 475,000 Americans die from sudden cardiac arrest. Because of these staggering numbers, 39 out of 50 states now mandate that high schoolers receive CPR training before graduation.
This survey has 33 multiple choice questions that give us insight into your knowledge of CPR and your previous experiences with CPR.
With this survey, we hope to understand the quality of CPR training for high school students and determine whether further education is necessary.
