International Restart A Heart Day

International Restart A Heart Day is an annual global event on the 16th October to raise awareness about cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and the importance of knowing how to respond to a cardiac arrest situation.
It was established by the European Resuscitation Council in 2012 and has expanded internationally under the World Restart A Heart aiming to give individuals the ability to save lives by learning CPR and defibrillator use.

Restart A Heart Day is to emphasise that anyone can learn CPR and prompt intervention during cardiac arrest can dramatically improve survival rates. “Globally bystander CPR and early defibrillation could save up to 200,000 lives annually” (ilor.org).
You can become involved by learning CPR, take a certified CPR course to gain essential life-saving skills. Host training sessions and familiarise yourself with the automated external defibrillators (AED’s) and their operation. Spread awareness to encourage others to learn CPR and support First Aid initiatives.

International Plasma Awareness Week

This annual event is held from 5th -9th October. International Plasma Awareness Week (IPAW) is an event to raise global awareness about plasma collection, recognising the contribution of plasma donors, and to increase understanding of plasma protein therapies and rare diseases.

Plasma is the straw-coloured liquid part of the blood that carries cells, nutrients, hormones, and proteins throughout the body.
Plasma contains proteins necessary for the human body to carry out critical functions in the human body, such as creating antibodies to fight diseases and clotting factors to regulate bleeding. If a person has insufficient levels of any one plasma protein, his/her body cannot carry out these vital functions, causing a variety of chronic and life-threatening medical conditions. (IPAW).
The source material for most plasma protein therapies is human plasma.
The theme for this year is . Patients around the world rely on plasma-derived medicines and IPAW is about the value of plasma donation.
You can get involved by finding out if you can become a plasma donor.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month runs throughout October and is dedicated to global breast cancer awareness. It is often called “Pink October”. It is a month to raise awareness of breast cancer and to raise awareness of the importance of checking their breasts. “Checking your chest regularly means you get to know what’s normal for you. And knowing what’s normal means you’ll notice faster if something changes, the earlier breast cancer is diagnosed the easier it is to treat.” (Coopafeel!)

Learn the signs and symptoms, encourage screening attendance. Common symptoms are lumps or swelling. A firm hard or thickened mass in the breast near the collarbone or under the arm. Skin changes, dimpling, puckering or skin that looks like an orange peel, redness or change in skin colour. Ni**le changes can also be a sign. A ni**le that turns inward, flattened or changes direction. If you are not breastfeeding or pregnant ni**le discharge can also be a sign. Size or shape changes, unexplained alterations in overall size or appearance of one or both breasts. A rash or crusting like an eczema-like rash, scaling or flaking around the ni**le or ar**la.
Each year, about 55,000 people are diagnosed with breast cancer in the UK. It is more common in people over 50, but it can also affect younger people. (Macmillan Cancer Support).
