Review

• A person who is suffering from pain and discomfort could be having a heart attack

• When you give rescue breaths you should give a breath that last about one second

• Check for signs of life for no more than10 seconds

• A conscious chocking adult give 5 back blows and 5 abdominal thrust.

• Why do you stop giving CPR

Review Continued

• In CPR how many cycles should you give in 2 minutes? 5

• 30 compressions 2 breaths is one cycle of CPR.

• What is the purpose of CPR?

UNCONSCIOUS CHOKINGCARE IS SIMILAR TO CPR WITH AN ADDITIONAL STEP

BETWEEN COMPRESSIONS AND BREATHS

• BEGIN YOUR ASSESSMENT STEPS (3 C’S, ABC’S,)• IF YOUR BREATHS DO NOT GO IN, RETILT THE HEAD AND TRY

BREATHS AGAIN… IF THEY STILL DO NOT GO IN YOU ASSUME THE VICTIM HAS A BLOCKED AIRWAY (CHOCKING)

• ONCE LEARNING ABOUT THE BLOCKED AIRWAY START WITH 30 COMPRESSIONS, FOREIGN OBJECT CHECK (LOOK IN THE MOUTH). IF YOU SEE THE OBJECT IN THE MOUTH, THEN DO A FINGER SWEEP, SWEEPING TOWARDS YOU. IF YOU DO NOT SEE THE OBJECT, THEN GIVE 2 BREATHS.

• AFTER GIVING 2 BREATHS, IF THEY GO IN, CHECK FOR SIGNS OF LIFE, IF NOT, 30 COMPRESSIONS, FOREIGN OBJECT CHECK AND BREATHS, UNTIL THE AIRWAY IS CLEAR.

• AFTER THE OBJECT IS REMOVED AND 2 BREATHS GO IN, THEN REASSESS THE VICTIM TO SEE IF THERE IS SIGNS OF LIFE.
