Zusammenfassung:Immediate bystander CPR after an out-of-hospital-cardiac arrest is likely to save hundreds of thousands of lives worldwide each year. International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation launched the World Restart a Heart initiative on October 16, 2018. In 2021 more than 2,200,000 persons were trained and at least 302,000,000 people were reached by WRAH global collaboration through print and digital media making it the highest-impact year since its inception. We strive for real success when CPR training and awareness become a year-round activity in all countries and all the citizens of the world realize that "Two Hands Can Save a Life!"
