Hands Only CPR
In 2008, the American Heart Association ruled that chest compressions alone or, what is called Hands Only CPR, can help sustain an adult who has just suffered a cardiac arrest until paramedics arrive. (The lungs and blood contain enough oxygen to keep vital organs healthy for the first few minutes, as long as someone provides high quality chest compressions.)
