1 Let’s say it’s 7.25pm and you’re going
home
(alone of course) after an unusually hard day
on the job.
2 You’re really tired, upset and
frustrated.
3 Suddenly you start experiencing severe
pain in your chest that starts to drag out into your arm and up in to your jaw.
You are only about five km from the hospital nearest your home.
4 Unfortunately you don’t know if you’ll be
able to make it that far.
5 You have been trained in CPR, but the guy
that taught the course did not tell you how to perform it on yourself.
6 HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE?
Since many people are alone when they
suffer a heart attack without help, the person whose heart is beating
improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only
about 10 seconds left before losing
consciousness.
7 However, these victims can help
themselves by coughing
repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep
breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and
prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest.
A breath and a cough must be repeated about
every two
seconds without let-up until help arrives,
or until
the heart is felt to be beating normally
again.
8 Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs
and coughing
movements squeeze the heart and keep the
blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain
normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital.
