Child Cpr is
1 year old to puberty.
How to give CPR to a Child:
1) Make sure the person is lying on their back on a firm, flat surface. 2) Quickly move clothes out of the way. -Either cutting or ripping the shirt off. 3) 1 hand to give compressions. -put the heel of one hand on the center of the chest (over the lower half of the breastbone). 4) Push straight down at least one third the depth of the chest or about 2 inches. - push at a rate of 100 to 120 compressions per minute. - COUNT the compression out loud!!! 5) let the chest come back up (recoil) after each compression.
How to give Compressions to Infants for CPR?
1) Make sure the person is lying on their back on a firm, flat surface. 2) Quickly move clothes out of the way. -Either cutting or ripping the shirt off. 3) Use 2 fingers of 1 hand to give compressions. Place them on the breastbone, just below the nipple line. 4) Push straight down at least one third the depth of the chest or about 2 inches. - push at a rate of 100 to 200 compressions per minute. - COUNT the compression out loud!!! 5) let the chest come back up after each compression
How to give compressions to a Adult:
1) Make sure the person is lying on their back on a firm, flat surface. 2) Quickly move clothes out of the way. -Either cutting or ripping the shirt off. 3) put heel of one hand on the center of the chest. Put the other hand on top. 4) let the chest come back up after each compression.
Following steps to assess emergency help:
1) Make sure the scene is safe. 2) Tap on shoulder of Child and Adult, but tap or flick the foot if it's a infant. "Shout are you Okay" 3) Shout for help 4) Shout for someone to call 911 & AED (Only for Adult and child) 5) Check for breathing - no more than 10 seconds, but 5 seconds minimum. -If not breathing, do cpr. However if Breathing, wait for EMT to come.
CPR has 2 to main skills:
1) Providing Compressions 2) Giving breaths
How to give breaths with a mask?
1) Put the mask over the child's mouth and nose. -If mask has a pointed end, put the narrow end of the mask on the bridge of the nose; position the wide end so that it covers the mouth. 2) Tilt the head and lift the chin while pressing the mask against the child's face. It is important to make an airtight seal between. 3) Give two breaths, blow for 1 second for each. Watch for the chest to begin to rise as you give each breath. 4) Don't interrupt the chest compressions for more than 10 seconds.
How to open the airway:
1) Put the palm of your hand on the forehand and two fingers of your other hand on the bony part of the victim's chin. 2)Tilt the head back & lift chin.
How to use an AED for an Adult:
1) Turn the AED and follow the prompts: - Turn it on by pushing the "ON" button or lift the lid. -follow the prompts, which it will tell you everting you need to do. 2) Attach the adult pads: -use adult pads for 8 years and older - peel away the back of pads - follow the pictures on the pads, attach them to the person's bare chest 3) Let the AED analyze the heart rhythm: - Loudly state, "Clear," and make sure that no one is touching the victim. - IF shock is not needed, resume cpr. 4) Deliver a shock if needed: - Loudly state, "Clear," and make sure that no one is touching the victim. - Push the shock "Shock" button. - Immediately resume CPR.
How to give breaths without a mask?
1) While holding the airway open, pinch the nose closed with thumb and forefinger. 2) Take a normal breath. Cover the person's mouth with your mouth. 3) Give 2 breaths (blow for one second for each). Watch for the chest to begin to rise as you give each breath. 4) Try not to interrupt compressions for more than 10 seconds.
To provide high-quality compressions, make sure that you:
1) provide compressions deep enough 2) provide compressions fast enough 3) chest comes back up after each compressions.
Don't interrupt Compressions for more than
10 seconds, even when you give breaths.
