headache
unresponsive
chest pain
not breathing or only gasping
trouble breathing
dizziness

Explanation:

Cardiac arrest is a sudden loss of heart function. A person in cardiac arrest is typically unresponsive (no response to stimuli like shaking or shouting) as the brain isn't getting adequate blood flow (due to heart stoppage). Also, they are either not breathing normally or only gasping (agonal gasps, which are not normal breathing). Headache, chest pain, trouble breathing, and dizziness can be symptoms of various other conditions (like migraine, heart attack - before cardiac arrest in some cases, asthma, low blood pressure respectively) but are not the definitive immediate signs of cardiac arrest itself.

Answer:

Unresponsive, Not breathing or only gasping
