It has been discovered that "Stayin' Alive" by the BeeGees is an excellent tune for training people in the rhythm and speed of chest compressions for CPR. Seems the tempo and rhythm is just about perfect. They had trainees listen to the song while practicing chest compressions. They then had them come back two weeks later and do the compressions but without the music playing. The trainees were told to think about the song while doing the compressions. The trainees got the tempo and rhythm just right.


On a side note, they found another song that had the correct tempo and beat, but was deemed inappropriate..."Another One Bites the Dust" by Queen. :lol: :lol: :lol:
