Abstract
Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA), abrupt cessation of heart function without warning, is a leading cause of death in the United States. Each year approximately 310,000 Americans die of coronary heart disease outside the hospital or in the emergency department, and more than 166,000 of these deaths (54%) are due to SCA (American Heart Association [AHA], 2008a, 2008b). However, SCA is reversible if treated with prompt cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and defibrillation (AHA, 2005; Cummins, Ornato, Thies, & Pepe, 1991). Although the actual number of SCAs that occur in the workplace is unknown (Occupational Safety and Health Administration [OSHA], 2006), 13% of workplace fatali-
