6 minutes to save a life (Could you do it?)

Article Abstract:

Experts state that once the heart stops, there is a crucial window of four to six minutes to restore circulation, but there could be a situation when paramedics are unable to reach the patient within the six-minute mark. A detailed guide to administering cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to a victim is provided, together with tips on dealing with emergencies such as burns, injured limbs, heatstroke, and so on.
