Abstract
According to the data presented by the European Resuscitation Council, the sudden cardiac arrest is the leading cause of death in Europe. Annual nearly 700 000 people die from sudden cardiac arrest. Although a fairly sizable percentage of people who have suffered a cardiac arrest do not survive, the recent studies provide evidence of continuous improvement in long-term outcome of treatment after the occurrence of sudden cardiac arrest. Police officers often witness the events in which lives are at risk as a result of various types of emergencies. The article presents the results of surveys conducted among police officers in 2016. The study involved a group of n=160 police officers from all four types of service in the police structures. One of the life-threatening conditions is undoubtedly a sudden cardiac arrest - this condition requires an immediate cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The obtained results were compared to the results of similar studies conducted among police officers in the years 2010-2015
