The one with the acronym for the tell-tale signs, can anyone remember it?

My workmate at the desk next to me is fairly dangerously obese and has indeed suffered a mini-stroke before - he was just joking with me about a pain in his chest and I had to tell him off for scaring me!

Anyway the point is that the acronym from the advert would help me out massively should he actually suffer one, but my google powers aren't strong today and I can't find it.

I can find lots of other symptom lists but none as clear and stark (and supposedly memorable - but I don't watch enough TV for it to have embedded itself in my memory) as what is said in the ad.

Can someone remind/link me?
 
Was building up the courage to tell my girlfriend that I loved her for the first time 3 months ago. Had just built it up ready and was about to speak when I suddenly looked at the TV and this advert came on. Messed up my rhythm and ruined the moment! Told her in the next ad break instead like a true romantic...

Keep some 300mg asprin tablets at your desk if he is that at risk, having one if he has the symptoms will help. Also a quick revision of the basic life support algorithms here http://www.resus.org.uk/ would be useful...

Fail. You shouldn't give anyone pills if they're having a heart attack, unless it's prescription medication they've been told to take. He may well be allergic to them for all you know.
