A group of medical students from the University of Arizona College of Medicine – Tucson, working with the UA Department of Emergency Medicine and UA Sarver Heart Center, began identifying interventions that could increase the use of chest-compression-only CPR among Hispanics in Arizona.

Overwhelming evidence shows bystander chest-compression-only CPR significantly improves survival from a cardiac arrest. Research also reveals large disparities in survival that exist between socioeconomic, racial, and ethnic groups. Hispanics, in particular, remain less likely to receive this form of CPR than non-Hispanics.
