Cardiopulmonary resuscitation at the Singapore General Hospital
Abstract
Effective use of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) saves lives both in and out of hospitals. Yet, in Singapore, this practical skill is rarely taught even within the medical community. Observations from a CPR pilot training programme at the Singapore General Hospital expose this glaring deficiency in our health system. Urgent remedial measures are needed.
