With 10,000 cardiac arrests annually in the workplace, there’s potential to save thousands of lives. Anyone can use an AED. Just turn it on and follow the device’s voice prompts. #NationofLifesavers

This is very commendable especially if you are alone and want to do compression and give rescue breath.. In case of a pregnant woman collapsing, it's crucial to act swiftly and calmly: 1) Stay composed and focused. 2) Gently tap her shoulders and call her name; assess her breathing and pulse. 3) Carefully tilt her tummy to the left to alleviate pressure on major blood vessels. 4) Initiate CPR with hands below and between the breasts; administer breaths. Remember to dial 911. Time is of the essence for pregnant women, with a critical 5-minute window. Ensure proficiency in CPR and seek immediate assistance if needed. #ROBSTS #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #Medicine #Obstetrics #AIInObstetrics #Gynaecology #AIInGynaecology #Humanoids #Robots #ObstetricsAndGynaecology

YOU are qualified to use an AED. A shock from an automated external defibrillator greatly increases the chances of surviving a cardiac arrest, but the device is used only 10% of the time by bystanders. No training is needed to use an AED: Pictures and voice prompts tell you exactly what to do. #NationofLifesavers
