We are celebrating a huge milestone! Our collaboration videos with Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute have reached over one million views on YouTube! π
The Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute is Australia’s home of heart research. With more than 200 scientists and 24 laboratories across Australia, they are dedicated to finding cures for cardiovascular disease through world-class and cutting-edge medical research.
This collab with the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute has allowed over one million people to learn about Cardiac Arrest, DRSABCD, how to perform CPR, and how to use an AED.
Response For Life is so incredibly grateful for this opportunity to share awareness at mass scale, to educate, and to help save lives.

CPR stands for cardiopulmonary resuscitation. CPR is a lifesaving technique that can be used in emergency situations. When someone’s heart stops beating or their breathing stops, CPR is administered. Both inexperienced and trained bystanders can carry out the procedure.

Julia from Response for Life demonstrates how to perform CPR in this easy-to-follow training video.
An AED or Automated External Defibrillator (or βdefibβ for short), is a portable, electronic device thatβs used in a medical emergency to help someone who is suffering a sudden cardiac arrest. An AED detects and analyses a personβs heart activity and, if needed, delivers an electric shock (also called a defibrillation), through the chest to the heart. An AED can restore normal rhythm to the heart.
