Every year 25 000 Australians experience a cardiac arrest in our community, but only 12% survive. The faster cardiopulmonary resuscitation and defibrillation, known as basic life support (BLS), is commenced, the greater the chance of survival. Currently, only half of the Australian adults are trained in BLS. The Australian Resuscitation Council and key stakeholder organisations believe that the best way to ensure all Australians know how to save a life is by mandating BLS education and training in our schools. This 'Aussie KIDS SAVE LIVES' position statement outlines our strategy to help facilitate the introduction of a programme of regular BLS training into the Australian school curriculum.
每年有 25000 名澳大利亚人在我们的社区经历心脏骤停,但只有 12%的人幸存下来。心肺复苏术和除颤术越快,即所谓的基本生命支持(BLS),开始得越早,存活的机会就越大。目前,只有一半的澳大利亚成年人接受过 BLS 培训。澳大利亚复苏理事会和主要利益相关者组织认为,确保所有澳大利亚人都知道如何拯救生命的最好方法是在我们的学校强制推行 BLS 教育和培训。这份“澳洲儿童拯救生命”立场声明概述了我们的战略,以帮助促进将定期 BLS 培训纳入澳大利亚学校课程。
