摘　　要：Background: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a life-saving skill that is often overlooked until a tragic event occurs. A popular NFL player, Damar Hamlin, safety for the Buffalo Bills, suffered a cardiac arrest on January 2, 2023. Due to prompt intervention and CPR, Hamlin survived the arrest and is playing again. This research sought to understand how people respond to this event on the internet. It also seeks to understand how this response can be used to raise CPR awareness. Design and Methods: Using Google Trends and Twitter data, we searched, downloaded, and retrospectively analyzed search interests relative to Hamlin’s cardiac arrest for a one-year duration. We searched for related keywords in the United States from March 2022 to March 2023, including “Damar Hamlin”, “sudden cardiac death”, “heart attack”, and “CPR”. Results: There was a significant rise in post-event Google searches that combined the terms “Damar Hamlin” and “SCD” (M = -28898.88, SE = 1537.66;t = 1.62, p Conclusion: Based on the analytics of these platforms, it can be concluded that there were active discussions and an awareness of life-saving skills such as CPR along with Hamlin’s cardiac event by his fans, as demonstrated by the data gathered from these platforms. This can provide us with valuable insight into human behavior and help us leverage this knowledge to promote health.Background: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a life-saving skill that is often overlooked until a tragic event occurs.
