Man's Life Saved After Sudden Collapse Thanks to Running Club Members

A man's life was reportedly saved thanks to members of a running club.

Last Sunday morning at the Gunsan National University track, members of a running club discovered a man who suddenly collapsed behind them after letting out a gasp.

The person who collapsed was a Bangladeshi man in his 30s.

The members immediately called 119, and following medical guidance from emergency dispatchers, several members took turns performing chest compressions, continuing CPR until paramedics arrived.

Paramedics who arrived at the scene immediately administered professional emergency treatment, and as a result, the patient's spontaneous circulation was restored just 13 minutes after the initial report, and he was transported to a hospital.

Fire authorities explained that the prompt report and the CPR performed before the arrival of the paramedics played a major role in saving the patient's life.
