The academic security service operates on&nbsp;the principles of&nbsp;prevention and support, with full respect for the rights of&nbsp;the entire university community. Its role is&nbsp;to&nbsp;respond to&nbsp;incidents and to&nbsp;help build a&nbsp;sense of&nbsp;safety on&nbsp;campus for students, staff, and visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>In&nbsp;an&nbsp;Emergency<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Call the emergency number <strong>112<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Notify the nearest reception\/porter&#8217;s&nbsp;lodge (<em>portiernia<\/em>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Provide first aid if&nbsp;needed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use the first aid kit available at&nbsp;every reception\/porter&#8217;s&nbsp;lodge, or&nbsp;the automated external defibrillator (AED), if&nbsp;necessary<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Contact Numbers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Fire Safety, Security and Defence Affairs Team (with the academic security service):<\/strong><br>Tel.: +48 12 628 25 50, +48 12 628 25 20<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Reception\/Porter&#8217;s&nbsp;Lodges (Portiernie):<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Faculty of&nbsp;Civil Engineering: +48 12 628 22 99<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Faculty of&nbsp;Chemical Engineering and Technology: +48 12 628 27 99<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Reporting a&nbsp;Direct Threat to&nbsp;Health or&nbsp;Life<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If&nbsp;a&nbsp;direct threat to&nbsp;health or&nbsp;life occurs on&nbsp;university premises, report it&nbsp;immediately:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>7:00 AM\u20133:00 PM:<\/strong> call +48 12 628 22 23 or&nbsp;e-mail <a href=\"mailto:bhp@pk.edu.pl\">bhp@pk.edu.pl<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>After 3:00 PM:<\/strong> call +48 12 628 22 99 (main reception, ul.

An&nbsp;AED can be&nbsp;used by&nbsp;anyone who witnesses a&nbsp;cardiac arrest requiring resuscitation \u2014 around 70% of&nbsp;adult cardiac arrests result from a&nbsp;heart attack. Its simple operation means that even people without medical training can use it&nbsp;to&nbsp;save a&nbsp;life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The device combines digital signal processing with advanced ECG analysis algorithms: it&nbsp;first analyzes the heart&#8217;s&nbsp;rhythm, and only then \u2014 if&nbsp;necessary \u2014 delivers a&nbsp;life-saving defibrillation shock, ensuring that the shock is&nbsp;applied correctly. The electrical pulse, at&nbsp;around 250 J, passes between the electrodes attached to&nbsp;the casualty&#8217;s&nbsp;body and is&nbsp;designed to&nbsp;stimulate the heart muscle to&nbsp;resume normal function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Statistics show that cardiopulmonary resuscitation combined with defibrillation within 3\u20135 minutes of&nbsp;collapse can result in&nbsp;successful resuscitation in&nbsp;49\u201375% of&nbsp;cases, while each additional minute of&nbsp;delay reduces the chance of&nbsp;survival by&nbsp;10\u201312%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The device is&nbsp;simple enough to&nbsp;operate that basic instructions can be&nbsp;learned from a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pk.edu.pl\/images\/news\/2016\/03\/AED_instrukcja.pdf\">step-by-step visual guide<\/a> or&nbsp;a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=OF72AD9VAxM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">demonstration video<\/a>.
