The American Heart Association estimates that each year, more than 330,000 people across the United States die from coronary heart disease before reaching a hospital or while in an emergency room. Most of those deaths result from sudden cardiac arrest. When the arrest occurs outside a hospital setting, most victims die because CPR and defibrillation were not provided soon enough. 

Often the survivability of a cardiac arrest victim is dependent on quick bystander intervention.
