Basic life support or what is popularly
called BLS is a process via which healthcare experts help blood circulation and
breathing for an unconscious victim and help save their life or buy some time
for advanced medical help to arrive. Training in basic life support is equally
vital both for medical professionals and the common people. As everyone knows,
an emergency can take place devoid of any prior notice and the same applies to
cardiac arrest as well. If a person possesses education and training in BLS,
he/she can recognize the symptoms and help to alleviate the same. Together with
this they can also handle such medical emergencies with proficiency and high
competence. A proper training in basic life support will aid one to combat
issues and crisis resulting from sudden collapse, cardiac arrest and chocking.
