In the next work we will talk about CPR.

Why did we choose the CPR topic?

As a group we chose the topic CPR or Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation because we recognize how important it is to know this technique and do it correctly to save a life. Knowing this technique is useful in many emergencies, since then we will know how to act in this type of situation.

What is CPR?

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a life-saving technique that is useful in many emergency situations, such as a heart attack or drowning, in which a person's breathing or heartbeat has stopped.

What does it consist of?

First aid CPR consists of physical interventions to create artificial circulation by applying rhythmic pressure to the patient's chest so that the heart manually pumps blood (chest compressions) and usually also involves the rescuer introducing oxygen into the chest. the patient, applying mouth-to-mouth breathing or using a device to inflate the lungs and transfer oxygen into the blood. This is called artificial respiration. Some current CPR protocols downplay the importance of artificial respiration and focus on chest compressions only.

What is your main objective of CPR?

Its main objective is to maintain a flow of oxygenated blood to the brain and heart, which delays tissue death and increases the time available for resuscitation by health professionals without permanent brain damage.

Place the heel of one hand on the breastbone, just between the nipples.

Place the heel of your other hand on top of your first hand.

Place your body directly over your hands.

Give 30 compressions. These must be fast and strong. Count the 30 compressions quickly

5. Open the airway. Lift his chin. At the same time, tilt his head back by pushing his forehead down with your other hand.

6. Observe, listen, and feel for breathing. Put your ear close to the person's nose and mouth. Watch for chest movement. Feel with your cheek for breathing.

7. If the person is not breathing or has difficulty breathing.

Close the person's nose by squeezing with your fingers.

Keep your chin up and head tilted.

Give 2 mouth-to-mouth breaths. Each breath should take about a second and cause the chest to rise.

8. Repeat chest compressions and rescue breathing until the person recovers or help arrives.
