One breath every three seconds add compressions if pulse is under 60 per minute (recheck pulse after 2 min)

Ideal position for cpr as lone rescuer

Patients side

How do you give breaths

Pinch nose and make seal with their mouth

During CPR if the victims chest do not rise after two attempts to give breaths you should

True

Always ask the patient if they are OK before performing CPR

True

Breathing and pulse tasks can be checked simultaneously within 10 seconds

True

Children typically have a cardiac arrest after they have experienced respiratory failure

True

For the lone rescuer bag mask rescue breathing is not recommended during cpr

True

For victims of any age the lone rescuer should use the compression ventilation ratio of 30 compressions to two breaths for CPR

True

If an adult is not breathing and is unconscious or non-responsive CPR should be performed

If jaw thrust doesn't work to open the airway on a suspected spinal injury used head tilt chin lift

True

In case of emergency do not leave the victim alone make them drink throw water on their face make them sit or slap their face
