  "account": "In Germany, bystanders hesitate to perform first aid in emergency situations, partly due to fear of making mistakes. According to the German Resuscitation Register, in 2025, laypersons started resuscitation in 53.5% of cases where the rescue service was not already on site. The German Resuscitation Council is advocating for resuscitation training in schools, starting from 7th grade, with two lessons per year, but this recommendation has not been fully implemented. Additionally, 38.4% of first responders received phone guidance from emergency dispatchers in 2025, and there are also digital first responder systems, such as Mobile Retter and Region der Lebensretter, which alert registered helpers via an app in emergency situations.",
  "summary": "Cardiopulmonary resuscitation can be intimidating - blood, disgust and fear of making mistakes play a role. Training and telephone guidance are intended to break down inhibitions.",
