CPR is a medical procedure used in the event of an emergency, which can save many lives. With this, a person’s life can be saved like cardiac arrest and not being able to breathe. In this process, the chest is pressed in a special way until the person’s breath stops suddenly until the breath is brought back or until the heartbeat becomes normal, due to which the blood already present in the body starts circulating and the person’s life is saved.
