App users who have indicated they are trained in CPR and are willing to assist in case of an emergency can be notified if someone nearby is having a cardiac emergency and may require CPR.If the cardiac emergency is in a public place, the app will alert trained citizens in the vicinity of the need for bystander CPR as medics are being summoned. The application also directs these citizen rescuers to the exact location of the closest publicly accessible Automated External Defibrillator (AED).

Kitsap County officials say the American Heart Association estimates that CPR performed effectively by a bystander immediately after sudden cardiac arrest can double or triple a person’s chance of survival.  Unfortunately, only about one quarter of sudden cardiac arrest victims receive CPR from a bystander.

“Each year upwards of a quarter of a million persons receive attempted resuscitation from cardiac arrest by Emergency Medical Services,” said Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue Firefighter/Paramedic Kevin Bernt. “The prognosis for the majority of these arrests remains poor.  Quality CPR started as soon as possible, and early Automated External Defibrillator (AED) application, is a means to improve survival from cardiac arrest.”
