This is the VOA Special English Health Report.
ðɪs ɪz ðə vi-oʊ-eɪ ˈspɛʃəlˈɪŋglɪ ʃhɛlθ rɪˈpɔrt.
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation, or CPR, can save the life of someone whose heart has stopped.
kɑrdioʊˈpʊlməˌnɛri rɪˌsʌsɪˈteɪʃən, ɔrsi-pi-ɑr, kæn seɪv ðə laɪf ʌv ˈsʌmˌwʌn huz hɑrt hæz stɑpt.
The condition is called cardiac arrest. The heart stops pumping blood. The person stops breathing.
ðə kənˈdɪʃən ɪz kɔld ˈkɑrdiˌæk əˈrɛst. ðə hɑrt stɑps ˈpʌmpɪŋ blʌd. ðəˈpɜrsən stɑps ˈbriðɪŋ.
Without lifesaving measures, the brain starts to die within four to six minutes.
wɪˈθaʊtˈlaɪfˌseɪvɪŋ ˈmɛʒərz, ðə breɪn stɑrts tu daɪwɪˈðɪnfɔr tu sɪks ˈmɪnəts.
CPR combines breathing into the victim's mouth and repeated presses on the chest.
si-pi-ɑr kəmˈbaɪnz ˈbriðɪŋ ˈɪntu ðəˈvɪktəmzmaʊθændrɪˈpitɪdˈprɛsəzɑnðə ʧɛst.
CPR keeps blood and oxygen flowing to the heart and brain.
si-pi-ɑr kips blʌd ændˈɑksəʤənˈfloʊɪŋ tu ðə hɑrt ænd breɪn.
However, a new Japanese study questions the usefulness of mouth-to-mouth breathing.
haʊˈɛvər, ənuˌʤæpəˈniz ˈstʌdi ˈkwɛsʧənz ðə ˈjusfəlnəs ʌvmaʊθ-tu-maʊθˈbriðɪŋ.
The study was published in the British medical magazine, The Lancet.
ðə ˈstʌdiwʌzˈpʌblɪʃt ɪn ðə ˈbrɪtɪʃˈmɛdəkəlˈmægəˌzin, ðə ˈlænsət.
Doctors in Tokyo led the research.
ˈdɑktərz ɪn ˈtoʊkiˌoʊ lɛd ðəriˈsɜrʧ.
It examined more than four thousand people who had suffered cardiac arrest.
ɪt ɪgˈzæmənd mɔr ðæn fɔr ˈθaʊzənd ˈpipəl hu hæd ˈsʌfərd ˈkɑrdiˌæk əˈrɛst.
In all the cases, witnesses saw the event happen.
ɪn ɔl ðəˈkeɪsəz, ˈwɪtnəsəzsɔ ði ɪˈvɛnt ˈhæpən.
More than one thousand of the victims received some kind of medical assistance from witnesses.
mɔr ðæn wʌn ˈθaʊzənd ʌv ðəˈvɪktəmzrəˈsivdsʌm kaɪnd ʌvˈmɛdəkələˈsɪstənsfrʌmˈwɪtnəsəz.
Seven hundred and twelve received CPR. Four hundred and thirty-nine received chest presses only.

No mouth-to-mouth rescue breaths were given to them.
noʊmaʊθ-tu-maʊθˈrɛskju brɛθs wɜrˈgɪvəntu ðɛm.
The researchers say any kind of CPR improved chances of the patient's survival.
ðə ˈrisərʧərz seɪ ˈɛni kaɪnd ʌv si-pi-ɑr ɪmˈpruvdˈʧænsəzʌv ðə ˈpeɪʃənts sərˈvaɪvəl.
But, they said those people treated with only chest presses suffered less brain damage.
bʌt, ðeɪ sɛd ðoʊz ˈpipəlˈtritədwɪðˈoʊnli ʧɛstˈprɛsəzˈsʌfərd lɛs breɪnˈdæməʤ.
Twenty-two percent survived with good brain ability.
ˈtwɛnti-tu pərˈsɛnt sərˈvaɪvdwɪðgʊdbreɪnə ˈbɪləti.
Only ten percent of the victims treated with traditional CPR survived with good brain ability.
ˈoʊnli tɛn pərˈsɛnt ʌv ðəˈvɪktəmzˈtritədwɪðtrəˈdɪʃənəl si-pi-ɑr sərˈvaɪvdwɪðgʊdbreɪn əˈbɪləti.
The American Heart Association changed its guidelines for CPR chest presses in two thousand five.
ðiəˈmɛrəkənhɑrtəˌsoʊsiˈeɪʃənʧeɪnʤd ɪts ˈgaɪˌdlaɪnz fɔr si-pi-ɑr ʧɛstˈprɛsəzɪn tu ˈθaʊzənd faɪv.
It said people should increase the number of chest presses from fifteen to thirty for every two breaths given.
ɪt sɛd ˈpipəl ʃʊdˈɪnˌkrisðə ˈnʌmbər ʌv ʧɛstˈprɛsəzfrʌmfɪfˈtintuˈθɜrdifɔrˈɛvəritu brɛθsˈgɪvən.
Gordon Ewy is a heart doctor at the University of Arizona College of Medicine in Tucson.
ˈgɔrdən ˈeɪvi ɪz ə hɑrtˈdɑktəræt ðə ˌjunəˈvɜrsəti ʌv ˌɛrɪˈzoʊnə ˈkɑlɪʤ ʌv ˈmɛdəsən ɪn ˈtuˌsɑn.
He wrote a report that appeared with the study.
hi roʊt ə rɪˈpɔrt ðæt əˈpɪrdwɪððə ˈstʌdi.
Doctor Ewy thinks the CPR guidelines should be changed again.
ˈdɑktərˈeɪvi ˈθɪŋks ðə si-pi-ɑr ˈgaɪˌdlaɪnz ʃʊd bi ʧeɪnʤdəˈgɛn.
He said the heart association should remove rescue breaths from the guidelines.
hi sɛd ðə hɑrtəˌsoʊsiˈeɪʃənʃʊd riˈmuv ˈrɛskju brɛθsfrʌmðə ˈgaɪˌdlaɪnz.
He argues that more witnesses to cardiac arrests would provide treatment if rescue breaths are not a part of CPR.
hi ˈɑrgjuz ðæt mɔrˈwɪtnəsəztu ˈkɑrdiˌæk əˈrɛsts wʊd prəˈvaɪd ˈtritmənt ɪf ˈrɛskju brɛθs ɑr nɑt əpɑrt ʌv si-pi-ɑr.
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.
ˈstʌdiz ʃoʊ ðæt ˈmɛni ˈpipəldunɑtwɑnttu pərˈfɔrmmaʊθ-tu-maʊθˈbriðɪŋɑnə ˈstreɪnʤər fɔr fɪr ʌvˈgɛtɪŋə dɪˈziz.
Cardiac arrest kills more than three hundred thousand people in theUnited Statesevery year.
ˈkɑrdiˌæk əˈrɛst kɪlz mɔr ðæn θriˈhʌndrədˈθaʊzənd ˈpipəl ɪn ðəjuˈnaɪtədsteɪtsˈɛvərijɪr.
The American Heart Association says about ninety-five percent of victims die before they get to a medical center.
