Cardiopulmonary resuscitation is a medical treatment that involves repeatedly compressing the chest of a patient in an effort to revive their respiration and blood circulation after suffering a cardiac arrest.

  2. ask for aid by dialing 911
  3. open the airway
  4. check for breathing
  5. apply chest compressions
  6. administer rescue breaths
  7. and repeat.

When do we use Cardiopulmonary resuscitation?

  • When someone's breathing or heartbeat have stopped due to an emergency, such as a heart attack or a near-drowning, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) can help save their life.
  • The American Heart Association advises performing quick, forceful chest compressions to begin CPR.

How to give CPR?

  • A consistent rate of 100 to 120 compressions per minute should be used while placing the palm of one hand on top of the heel of the other and pressing down on the person's chest in a downward motion of 5 to 6 cm (2 to 2.5 inches).
  • Give 2 rescue breaths every 30 chest compressions.
