1. (Remember Airway, Breathing and Circulation)
CPR/AED
(C) CIRCULATION
Video CPR 11 mins.
We have established an airway
Given rescue breaths
We now need to check for a pulse
(Remember Airway, Breathing and Circulation)

2. CPR/AED Pulse Checks Adults/Child: carotid Infants: brachial
Adults: use 2 hands, middle of the chest,
1½-2 inches
Child: use heel of one hand, middle of chest,
1- 1½ inches
Infants: 2 fingers, middle of chest just below the nipple line, ½-1inch

3. CPR CHEST COMPRESSIONS for adult, child and infant CPR
CPR/AED
CPR CHEST COMPRESSIONS
One Man CPR
1 cycle = 30 compressions/2 breaths
for adult, child and infant CPR
This equals 100 compressions per minute

4. 2-Rescuer CPR Adult and Child
CPR/AED
2-Rescuer CPR Adult and Child
Video 12 mins ( all 3)
1. As 2nd rescuer arrives, 1st rescuer goes to head to give breaths
2. 1st rescuer gives 2 breaths
3. 2nd rescuer finds hand positions and gives compressions
Adult cycle ratio = 30-2
Child cycle ratio = 15-2
Note change!!!!!

5. CPR/AED Do 2 mins. (about 4 cycles) of CPR and then call for “change”
And change at the end of the compression cycle
Switch should take less than 5 secs.!!!
Be prepared to move!!!

6. Rescuer providing breaths should be at top of the head
CPR/AED
2 Rescuer CPR INFANT
Same sequence
Compression ratio is 15/2
Rescuer providing breaths should be at top of the head
Rescuer delivering chest compressions should position at feet and use thumbs

7. CPR/AED Bag-Valve-Mask to deliver breaths Must have a tight seal
Advantages: delivers more O2
Can be connected to O2
Protect against disease transmission

8. CPR/AED
To respond effectively to cardiac emergencies you must know the
chain of survival
Early recognition of emergency
Early access to EMS
CPR
AED
Advanced medical care

9. AED = Automatic External Defibrillator
CPR/AED
In the event of cardiac arrest, AED should be used as soon as possible
AED = Automatic External Defibrillator
Video AED 10 mins.
Precautions for use:
Water
NTG pathces
Chest hair

10. CPR/AED General Steps for using AEDs: Then re-analyze heart rhythm
Turn on AED
Wipe off victim’s chest
Attach pads
Plug in connector
“Stand Back” while AED analyzes
Push shock button if advised
Provide 1 shock followed by 2 mins. (5 cycles) of CPR
Then re-analyze heart rhythm

11. CPR/AED When do you stop CPR????
Another trained rescuer arrives to take over
An AED is ready to use
The scene becomes unsafe
You are exhausted
MD says to stop
Signs of life return
Demonstrate
