The nurse in action
A video has shown the moment a pregnant nurse, Zhou Qing was filmed as she performed CPR on a dying man in the street and incredibly brought him back to life.
Daily Star UK reports that the incident occurred in China.
Passers-by filmed as the nurse battled to save the stranger’s life.
Despite being seven months pregnant, Zhou Qing got down on her knees to perform CPR for a number of minutes. She was eventually able to bring the unconscious man back from the brink.
Zhou, who works in a community hospital in Xinxiang City, in Central China’s Henan Province, is said to have been passing by when she saw a crowd gathered around the man.
He had fallen to the ground clutching his chest after having a heart attack and he was already unconscious when Zhou arrived.
Instinctively, she had bystanders call an ambulance and leapt to the floor to resuscitate him.
According to local reports, the man was just moments from death before Zhou came to the rescue.
At one point, witnesses jumped in to tell Zhou to stop before she exhausted herself and injured her baby.
In the clip she is seen being helped to her feet by two other women.
The patient was later taken to hospital by paramedics.
Doctors say he is alive thanks to Zhou who has made headlines across China for her heroic effort.
