BLS quick

The participants:

• recognise a circulatory arrest
• understand that people in circulatory arrest die within minutes without help
• alert correctly
• carry out cardiac massage (if necessary under telephone guidance)
• use AEDs (if necessary under telephone guidance)
• Motivation to participate in further courses

BLS-quick can be used as a stand-alone video, as part of larger campaigns, or in course-like settings with the following content:

• Recognition of cardiovascular arrest
• National emergency numbers
• Cardiac massage (Hands only CPR)
• Defibrillation by means of AED (incl. support by dispatchers)
• Knowledge of the nearest equipment locations

The minimum intervention is a video provided by the SRC. This can be supplemented with further information and ideally with simple hands-on training. In principle, however, all interventions that serve to raise awareness in this sense are indicated if they are below the threshold of BLS-AED compact or complete courses. Large group settings are also possible, as the SRC does not specify a participant-instructor ratio for this format.

Neither formal degrees nor certificates are required for these events.
