In an emergency, knowing what to do is key to saving someone’s life.

Without a supply of oxygen, the brain can die after 4 to 6 minutes. Choking, suffocation, drowning, trauma, a severe allergic reaction, stroke, and cardiac arrest are all cases that can unexpectedly - but very quickly - lead to death.

Do you know what to do if your child is choking, or how to tell if a loved one is having a heart attack or stroke? Do you know how to revive a drowning victim, or help someone suffering from heat stroke? These many other questions are answered in the First Aid Reference Guide from St. John Ambulance.

The app is a great way to prepare, revise, and practice for an upcoming first aid course or to review your training after you have completed your course. The tests also provide you with instant feedback by informing you which topics you need to spend more time on.

The app will guide you through the correct measures you should take in various emergency situations, and are explained step-by-step with clear illustrations. Topics include:

How to place an unresponsive casualty in the recovery position
How to perform cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
How to use an automated external defibrillator (AED)
