These are the unexpected signs of cardiac arrest for women
According to a new study by the European Heart Journal, women are less likely to receive help from bystanders if they suffer from a cardiac arrest outside of a hospital environment.
This is because the general public are unable to spot the signs of cardiac arrest in women, leading to a delay in taking action - both in phoning for help and for resuscitation. For this reason, women are less likely to survive than men.
