更糟糕的是，你自己都不知道能不能撐得了那麼遠。

怎麼辦？以前曾經受過心肺複甦術CPR訓練，但是教課老師並沒教你怎麼自己
給自己做急救的方法。
獨處時，心臟病發作急救術--(許多人心臟病發作時，四周沒有旁人，因此，學
會能自己給自己做簡單的心肺複甦術是非常重要的。)

一個人若是心臟不能正常跳動，並且開始感到快要昏過去時，他大概只有
十秒鐘的時間，然後就會失去知覺，不省人事。
若是四周沒有旁人能幫忙急救，患者要立刻把握這十秒鐘的短暫時間自己救
自己。
要不停咳嗽！用力的咳！每一次咳嗽前，都要先深吸一大口氣。

然後，用力地、深深地、長長地咳，好像要把胸腔深處的痰咳出來一般。

每間隔大約兩秒鐘，要做一次吸、一次咳，一直要做到救護趕到時，
或者已經感到心跳恢復正常，才能休息。
做深呼吸的目的是要把氧氣吸進肺部，
咳嗽的目的則是要以這個動作壓擠心臟，進而促進血液循環。
對心臟的擠壓也可以幫它恢復正常脈搏。
如此急救，可以讓心臟病發作患者有機會打電話求救，或者撐到醫院。

HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK ALONE
If everyone who gets this sends it to 10 people, you can bet that we'll save at
least one life.
Let's say it's 6: 15 p. m. and you're driving home (alone of course), after an
unusually hard day on the job.
You're really tired, upset and frustrated. Suddenly, you start experiencing
severe pain in your chest that starts to radiate out into your arm and up into
your jaw. You are only about five miles from the hospital nearest your home;
unfortunately you don't know if you'll be able to make it that far.
What can you do?
You've been trained in CPR but the guy that taught the course neglected to
tell you how to perform it on yourself.
Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack, this article
seemed to be in order.

Without help, the person whose heart stops beating properly and who
begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing

or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again.
Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze
the heart and keep the blood circulating.
The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm.
In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital.
Tell as many other people as possible about this, it could save their lives!
