Why Carry a CPR Mask? | EDC

Cardiac arrest kills a person about every 45 seconds in the USA. Everyone should know CPR.

Yes, you can do compressions only. No, you don't NEED a mask. But a barrier device with a one-way valve will help you deliver the highest quality CPR, and increase the chances of a person surviving. These little keychain masks are not the greatest. But they work, and I would rather have a cheap barrier with a simple valve than have nothing at all.
