The lungs carry oxygen into the blood when you breathe. The heart pumps the blood to every part of the body. Every part of the body needs oxygen. Without it, the body dies. That person is in big trouble. Could you save them? If someone’s breathing stops…. …or if someone’s heart stops beating… …no oxygen gets through. a. to assess an unconscious person

> check for danger > try to get a response > open the airway > check for breathing a. to assess an unconscious person Jasmine’s story “Me and my mates were in the park when this jogger collapsed. He was running along one moment and the next he was lying on the ground…” What was the right thing to do? Click here to see
5
Jasmine’s story “It was a scary situation. But I just concentrated on doing the right thing and that kept me calm…” “It seemed safe enough and I was with my mates. I tried shaking the man’s shoulders and spoke to him, but got no reaction so I knew he was unconscious, so we shouted for help. I tilted his head back and lifted his chin to open the airway so I could check to see if he was breathing…” a. to assess an unconscious person
6
Jasmine’s story “I put my cheek close to his face and listened for breathing. I couldn’t hear anything. I couldn’t feel his breath against my cheek either. His chest was still – it wasn’t rising or falling. I told my mate to call 999 on her mobile and tell them he’s not breathing, and told myself not to panic!”
7
If someone is not breathing, you have to act fast! Call 999 for an ambulance. Then, it’s time for CPR…. b. how to perform CPR on an adult He’s not breathing! Stay calm…
8
Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation – CPR for short. It sounds complicated - but it’s not that tricky. You press on someone’s chest and breathe into someone’s mouth to keep them alive. The chest compressions do the job of the heart – pushing blood around the body, the breathing gets oxygen into their lungs. b. how to perform CPR on an adult
9
CPR – How do I do it? Call for help before you start! If there are no bystanders to call 999 do 1 minute of CPR then call yourself. This video clip shows you more! 30 chest compressions 2 rescue breaths b. how to perform CPR on an adult 1 2
10
Jasmine’s story “I just kept going with rescue breaths and chest compressions. When we’d learnt it in class it seemed really tiring but now I was so buzzed I didn’t feel tired at all. I knew I had to hang on until the ambulance came.” b. how to perform CPR on an adult
11
Jasmine’s story “Luckily the ambulance arrived after about five minutes. I kept going with the CPR until the paramedics took over. They cut off his T-shirt and attached this machine called a defibrillator to his chest. It gave electric shocks to make his heart start again.” b. how to perform CPR on an adult
12
Jasmine’s story The paramedics said I did a great job at keeping him alive until they could get to him with the defibrillator. He probably would have died without me. Since then we’ve met up, and he thanked me for saving his life. It was an amazing feeling to hear him saying that. I never thought I’d have to actually use my training!” b. how to perform CPR on an adult
13
c. how to perform CPR on a child If a child is unconscious you have to be more gentle. Tap shoulders gently to try to get a response. This video shows you more!
14
If a child is not breathing it is more likely to be because of a problem with their breathing than with their heart. Then 2 rescue breaths. Then continue with 30 chest compressions. If you are alone, do 1 minute of CPR before going to call an ambulance. Therefore with child CPR start with 5 rescue breaths. Repeat cycles of 30 chest compressions and 2 rescue breaths until help arrives. c. how to perform CPR on a child ? ? ? ? ?

c. how to perform CPR on a baby If a baby stops breathing, you have to be a lot more gentle. This video clip shows you what to do.
16
c. how to perform CPR on a baby CPR for a baby. Put the instructions in the right order… The right order is… BE H GF DACI J Check for danger. …then press on the centre of the baby’s chest with 2 fingers. Do this 30 times. Make a seal around the baby’s mouth and nose with your lips. …open the airway by tilting the head back and lifting the chin using 1 finger. Look, listen and feel for breathing. If they’re not breathing, get a friend to call an ambulance. … but don’t put your whole finger in the mouth. Gently remove any visible objects from the mouth with your fingertips… Keep going with cycles of 2 breaths and 30 compressions until help comes Speak to the baby and tap their foot. If no response… Breathe gently into baby’s mouth for 1 second. Do 5 rescue breaths like this….

The main points again… > check for danger > try to get a response > open the airway > check for breathing > give chest compressions. Remember it all like this…. Plenary
