Zusammenfassung:The image of 24-year-old professional football player Damar Hamlin receiving CPR on the field during a nationally televised game is etched into the minds of people across the country. When Hamlin, a player for the Buffalo Bills, went into cardiac arrest during a Jan 2 game in Cincinnati, the Bills' medical staff performed CPR for nine minutes and used an AED to restart his heart. Experts say those actions saved Hamlin's life. With some basic training, workers and safety professionals in any industry can save lives as well.
