Explanation:

Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation​

To help a person who may have stopped breathing, a CPR needs to be performed quickly.

Following steps can be used:

  1. Perform external chest compressions by placing the heel of one palm at the lower half of the breast bone and keeping fingers off the ribs. Cover this hand with the heel of the other hand. 
  2. Keep arms straight and push down vertically about 4 to 5 cm and then release. Do not lift hands off the chest between compressions. Complete 30 compressions in 18 seconds.
  3. After one cycle of compressions tilt head back, pinch nose and give two short breaths of mouth-to-mouth respiration.
  4. Complete 5 cycles of this routine (compressions and mouth-to-mouth) within 2 minutes. Check pulse after every 5 cycles.
  5. Stop compressions as soon as pulse returns and check for breathing. If there is no breathing continue mouth-to-mouth respiration until natural breathing is restored. 
  6. Cover your mouth with clean cloth/ handkerchief to prevent transmitting infections when giving mouth to mouth rescue breathing. 
  7. Continue CPR till you are completely exhausted, or someone takes over. Never leave the victim alone. To perform CPR with proper CPR techniques and procedures one should undergo CPR training.
