Gordon Ewy is a heart doctor at the University of Arizona College of Medicine in Tucson.
He wrote a report that appeared with the study.
Doctor Ewy thinks the CPR guidelines should be changed again.
He said the heart association should remove rescue breaths from the guidelines.
He argues that more witnesses to cardiac arrests would provide treatment if rescue breaths are not a part of CPR.
He says this would save lives.
Studies show that many people do not want to perform mouth-to-mouth breathing on a stranger for fear of getting a disease.
Cardiac arrest kills more than three hundred thousand people in the United States every year.
The American Heart Association says about ninety-five percent of victims die before they get to a medical center.
And that's the VOA Special English Health Report, written by Caty Weaver. I’m Bob Doughty.

1. 今天六点四十醒来，听完了倒数第二节晨读课。
2. 虽然课程结束了，但是要清醒认识到一个月的刻意关注点在发音上，语音语调还需要继续练习。这个是VOA慢速英语，距离常速还很远。
3. 今天复习了前几天的句子，因为这一周学的句子都比较多，过的速度也较快，效果没有前面练习的好。
