Emergency Medical Supplies
When an accident or injury occurs in the
workplace, emergency oxygen is recommended
virtually all of the time.
In 95% of medical emergencies, the victim
is still breathing and is usually conscience; therefore, CPR is not indicated.
Fire Department statistics show that CPR
is administered in only 5% of emergency calls, but emergency oxygen is administered in over 90% of the
calls.
Emergency Oxygen can be administered by anyone who has
had a basic emergency oxygen administration course.
According to The American Heart
Association, over 950,000 deaths are attributed to cardiovascular disease annually, making it the leading cause
of death in the United States.
Of these, estimates are as high as 450,000 people die from Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA)
yearly, somebody dies approximately every two minutes. SCA afflicts people of all ages, races and all
degrees of fitness often without warning.
Pulse America is dedicated to helping businesses and other facilities establish AED
programs to increase survival rates for victims of sudden cardiac arrest. Pulse America offers the

Each year sudden cardiac arrest claims the lives of more than 250,000 Americans before they

available.
