WHILE we can’t all be trained medical professionals, there are certain tips and tricks you can learn that could help you save a life.<\/p>\n

Performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) can be tricky if you don’t know how, but you can actually master the skill by just knowing the beat to some of Taylor Swift’s biggest hits.<\/p>\n

There are a number of Taylor Swift songs that are 100 beats per minute so can be used to perform the procedure<\/span>Credit: Getty<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

According to the Resuscitation Council UK (RCUK), fewer than one in 10 people survive an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.<\/p>\n

This is low compared to other countries like Norway where seven in ten people survive.<\/p>\n

If someone has a cardiac arrest it’s important that you know what to do.<\/p>\n

You should call 999 immediately and a paramedic will then help guide you through CPR.<\/p>\n

There are different techniques,with one of the most popular being to do the compressions to the lyrics of the Bees Gees song Stayin’ Alive.<\/p>\n

A chest compression is where you clasp your hands together and push hard and fast on the chest to help pump blood around the person\u2019s body.<\/p>\n

In one viral video<\/a>, a TikToker posted that she had ‘some information that could help you save a life’.<\/p>\n

The social media user, who goes under the handle @shampain.problems<\/a>, in a nod to Taylor’s track ‘champagne problems’ on her most recent album Evermore, revealed the Taylor Swift songs that are one hundred beats a minute and could therefore help with CPR.<\/p>\n

She explained: “First up is ‘I Think He Knows’, I found it entertaining that all of these songs contain a lyric that can relate to saving a person from cardiac arrest”.<\/p>\n

The song is from Taylor’s 2019 album Lover and TikToker Eileen explained that the lyric ‘he got my heartbeat skipping down 16th avenue’ is helpful.<\/p>\n

The second she says is Taylor hit ‘Stay Stay Stay’ from her album Red, with the lyric ‘I think it’s best that we both stay’.<\/p>\n

She joked that it’s ‘best that we both stay alive’.<\/p>\n

<\/span>SUSTAIN THE RHYTHM<\/span><\/h2>\n

Another track to use is called ‘All You Had To Do Was Stay’, from Taylor’s 1989 album.<\/p>\n

She joked that ‘all you had to do is stay and keep breathing’.<\/p>\n

“Another is 22, ‘everything will be alright if you keep me next to you'”, she added. Eileen then says that by using this track you would be helping to sustain someones heart rhythm, therefore keeping them alive.<\/p>\n

The next track is a song called Clean, again from 1989.<\/p>\n

Eileen explained: “When I was drowning that’s when I could finally (not breathe).”<\/p>\n

Lastly she highlighted Fearless, from the album Fearless.<\/p>\n
