However, the process of science transfer can continue with the support of innovation and technological advances. Cardiac arrest can occur anytime and anywhere, including at home, in public facilities, and the workplace. The incidence of cardiac arrest at work increases over time. Through this community, service activity developed the innovation application of Basic Life Support to educate non-health workers.
