How To Do CPR (first aid)

HOW TO DO CPR
(CARDIOPULMONARY RESUCITATION) #firstaid

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a lifesaving technique useful in many emergencies, including heart attack or near drowning, in which someone’s breathing or heartbeat has stopped.

General Procedure
• If the victim is still not breathing normally, coughing or moving, begin chest compressions.
• Place the heel of one hand on the breastbone right between the nipples and press down about 2 inches 30 times. Compressions should be fast at the rate of at least 100 per minute, faster than once per second.
• Tilt the head back and lift the chin to open the airway.
• Pinch nose and cover the mouth with yours and blow until you see the chest rise. Give 2 breaths. Each breath should take 1 second.
• Continue CPR (30 chest compressions followed by 2 breaths, then repeat) until the person recovers or help arrives.

DONT
• If the person has normal breathing, coughing, or movement, DO NOT begin chest compressions. Doing so may cause the heart to stop beating.
• Unless you are a health professional, DO NOT check for a pulse. Only a health care professional is properly trained to check for a pulse.

CPR for Infants and Small Children
• Shake or tap the infant gently. If there is no response, call an ambulance.
• Carefully place the infant on its back and perform chest compressions
• Place 2 fingers on the breastbone, just below the nipples.
• Give 30 chest compressions by gently pressing down on the infant’s chest about 1/3 to 1/2 the depth of the chest.
• Lift up the chin with one hand to open the airway. Do not tilt the head too far back.
• If the infant is not breathing, cover the infant’s mouth and nose tightly with your mouth and give 2 breaths. Each breath should take about a second and make the chest rise.
• Continue CPR (30 chest compressions followed by 2 breaths, then repeat) for about 2 minutes.
• Repeat rescue breathing and chest compressions until the infant recovers or help arrives.
