What is BLS?
Basic Life Support (BLS) stands as the fundamental cornerstone of emergency medical care, representing the crucial link between a sudden cardiac arrest victim and their chances of survival. In the critical moments before professional medical assistance arrives, the knowledge and swift execution of BLS techniques can make all the difference. This life-saving algorithm comprises a set of easy-to-learn, yet precise, maneuvers designed to sustain vital functions, restore circulation, and maintain oxygenation in individuals experiencing cardiac arrest or life-threatening emergencies.
