What is in this deck
With this deck you learn the steps of first aid following the European Resuscitation Council guidelines: recognise, secure, act.
How deep, how fast, and what do you do when someone is unconscious but breathing? The knowledge fades between courses, and it counts when it matters.
39 cards on resuscitation, emergencies, injuries and recognising.
Every figure is documented: the comparison with the 2025 resuscitation guidelines sits in the deck's source, with quotation, source and date.
This deck is no substitute for a first-aid course.
The categories decide what comes up: start with “Basics” alone and add the rest when you are ready.
What you learn
- Depth, rate and ratio in resuscitation
- Unconsciousness, bleeding and choking
- Recognising stroke and seizure
The categories
5 categories sort the 39 cards. You can filter by category and take on what is due right now.

Learning with Qardbox
You see a card, you think, you turn it over and say whether you knew it. A round asks nothing more of you, and how the app works out the next date from that is on the page about FSRS-6.
What sits comes back less often, what wobbles comes back soon. You set a daily goal, and when nothing is due the app tells you exactly that instead of inventing work for you. How a round goes is shown on the learning page.
Everything stays on your device. No account, no sign-up, no ads. After the purchase the deck sits in your library like any other subject and can be studied, reordered and extended just like your own.
What it costs, and what it doesn’t
Qardbox itself costs nothing, and it stays that way. Every function is there from the start, with no subscription, no ads and no tiers; what that rests on is on the page about what it costs.
Your own cards stay unlimited, and decks from friends or from the family you read in without a limit, from a file as well. You do not need this deck in order to learn with Qardbox.
This deck costs nothing. Its 39 cards are checked and save you the work you would otherwise have.
