Dumor�s Death Is Devastating..., But How Well Do You Know CPR?

As William Shakespeare rightly puts it, �all the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players: they have their exits and their entrances; and one man in his time plays many parts, his acts being seven ages.� The late Komla Dumor has finished playing his. He ended up as one who brought honour and dignity to the entire nation. He is gone though it would be hard to come to terms with, but that is the exact truth. Even in his death, the late Komla continues to teach us a lesson. The lesson is no longer based on unearthing facts about high profile cases; it is centered on �your� health. We are told his death is related to a heart condition and Professor Frimpong Boateng has seized the opportunity to enlighten the entire nation about how well we can to some extent, handle heart failure problems. He is considered as the first black Cardiothoracic Surgeon from Sub-Saharan Africa to perform a heart transplant. Speaking to Adakabre Frimpong Manso on Neat FM's "Me Man Nti", programme, he urged all to learn about CPR. CPR stands for Cardiopulmonary resuscitation and it is a procedure used during an emergency situation to manually preserve brain function until further measures to restore spontaneous blood circulation and breathing in a person who is under cardiac arrest.
