Resuscitating your cardiopulmonary skills.
The emotions that prompt patients who have suffered a heart attack and their families to seek cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training are sometimes the very things that inhibit learning. Shock, denial, anger, and fear can have an adverse impact on the opportunity to master vital skills.

Heart attack: what you don't know can hurt!
Do belching, chills, fatigue, and pressure just above the ribs sound like the symptoms of a heart attack? To most patients, they probably don't. However, research is indicating that a victim's actual symptoms often do not match his or her expectations of what a heart attack should feel like. As a result, many sufferers do not seek medical attention, or they delay it, which can result in permanent damage to the heart muscle or even death. A recent research study indicated that most patients with recent heart attack (74%) interviewed had symptoms different from what they expected. As a result, medical treatment was significantly delayed.
