A ) . ZTllYzRiZTM3MDE0NjAyNmZhMzhmNWM3ZGQ0OGZkNGIwYzlhYmYwOTg3OTA2 Be sure to check the victims pulse every 2 minutes and begin chest compressions combined with breaths if needed. In this position, the external ear canal should be level with the top of the infants shoulder. Allow the chest to completely recoil between compressions. If you are alone and come across an individual who is down, follow the steps below. Note: if you witnessed the childs collapse, leave the child to activate EMS and retrieve an AED if you know where one is located.

Heres what to do when faced with one of the following: Now you know what to do should you encounter one of these special circumstances. For a child, use one or two hands, whatever is needed to provide adequate compression depth. Activate emergency response and retrieve AED. weegy* * Deliver air over 1 second, ensuring that the victims chest rises. If the patient has a pulse but is not breathing, provide one breath every 5-6 seconds (10-12 breaths/minute) and check for a pulse every 2 minutes. -----END REPORT-----. When an advanced airway is in place, compressions are delivered at a rate of 100-120 compressions per minute. Give CPR until AED is available and charged. Use gloves, mask, and/or gown when you have them available.The benefit of initiating lifesaving resuscitation in a patient in cardiopulmonary arrest greatly outweighs the risk for secondary infection in the rescuer or the patient. Give a second breath over 1 second and watch for chest rise. The heart consists of four chambers, the right and left atria (singular: atrium) and the right and left ventricles.The atria are located above the ventricles, as can be seen in the above diagram. YjEzMjY2ZjcwMThlN2IxOWE2MjA1MDgwNDk1NjBkZjJiMWY3ZTVkZTJhZjE4 If this occurs, reposition the mask and try again. Lastly, rather than performing a head tilt-chin lift maneuver to open the infants airway, the infants head should be placed in sniffing position with the infants head tilted just enough that the nose appears to be sniffing the air. Position yourself at the victims side. Ventricular tachycardia often precedes ventricular fibrillation. Make sure an ambulance is on its way. 4. apply icepacks at neck, armpits and groin, 1. move victim out of cold and into warm place After approximately 5 cycles of CPR, or 2 minutes, the AED will state that the victims rhythm should be ANALYZED. Chest compressions B. Airway Hands-only CPR is designed to provide simple life support. Then place the remaining fingers of your second hand along the bony edge of the jaw and lift the jaw upwards.

Inhale a regular breath, then cover the victims mouth with your own, creating a tight seal. -No food or drink Activate the Emergency Response System and Find an AED: Yell for help. All you need to do as a rescuer is turn on the machine (the most important step) and listen as the machine guides you through the steps to use the AED safely and effectively. Blow into the infants nose and mouth over 1 second, with just enough volume and force to cause the chest to rise with each breath. -skin color changes (flushed, pale or ashen) Same as adult Can also use femoral artery.

The purpose of CPR is to help the blood flow through the heart and into the rest of the vital organs; if you allow the chest to re-expand, more blood will flow into the heart and will be available to deliver to the rest of the body. AEDs can be found wherever crowds of people gather- swimming pools, airports, malls, sporting arenas, schools, hotelsMore and more businesses are also investing in these life-saving machines. Open the airway by performing a head-tilt chin-lift procedure. High-quality CPR is defined as: Compression rate of 100- 120 beats per minute on all victims; Compression depth of AT LEAST 2 inches in adults (no greater than 2.4 inches), and at least 1/3 the anterior-posterior diameter of the chest in children and infants (about 1.5 inches in infants and 2 inches in children); Allowing the chest to completely expand (recoil) after each compression (do not lean on the chest between compressions); Not interrupting CPR except to use an AED (keep interruptions in chest compressions to less than 10 seconds); Since many responders (even professionals) are unable to feel or palpate a pulse quickly, the recommendation is to feel for a pulse for NO MORE THAN 10 seconds. In an unwitnessed arrest of a child or infant, perform CPR for 2 minutes before leaving the patient to get an AED or to call emergency medical services. Oxygen deprivation, or hypoxia, will cause cells to die within a few short minutes. YmI1MTI0OTI3M2YyYmVkYzkyZTMxODRjN2YxNGNhYTUyZDczODRhNjY4MDEx In actual fact, your expired air contains about 17% oxygen- this is just enough oxygen to meet the victims needs.

An AED, or automated external defibrillator,is a device that has the ability to detect and treat, through electrical energy, the lethal arrhythmias known as ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia. If you cant feel a pulse or if youre not sure you can feel a pulse, begin CPR. -Falls from standing height EACH TIME YOU OPEN THE AIRWAY TO DELIVER BREATHS, LOOK TO SEE IF THE OBJECT IS VISBLE. Continue Learning about First Aid Techniques What is the proper technique for spine boarding? If someone else is in the area to assist, use the Two Rescuer sequence. Untreated, ventricular fibrillation rapidly causes cardiac arrest. The number of hands used will depend on the size of the child. Head should be in sniffing position. Congratulations! Now its time to put it all together. During respiratory arrest, as well as inadequate breathing, the victim will still have some amount of cardiac output, which you will be able to detect as a palpable pulse. Remember, push HARD and FAST. If you think the persons neck may be injured, avoid the head tilt/chin lift.Use the jaw thrust maneuver if you have been trained to do so. You did not witness the child collapse. In many situations, there may be only one rescuer who will carry out the normal sequence of assessments and actions. The bronchi then divide into smaller and smaller tubules called bronchioles. You can check tasks (breathing and pulse) simultaneously within 10 seconds. Your shoulders should be positioned directly over your hands in a straight line. If there is no pulse (or if you are unsure if there is a pulse), begin CPR starting with chest compressions. One rescuer can provide compressions, one can prepare to give breaths with a bag-valve mask, and one can prepare the AED. When two rescuers are present, the compression: ventilation ratio drops to 15:2, the same as in children. Masks should fit correctly and should not extend below the childs chin or cover the eyes. ODU0YzY3MzY3ZjA5ZDAwNzkyMTE0NjE2ZTViZjA5N2RiMWU4ZDYwYjhkMTBk This will only result in more victims.

When a person performing compressions becomes fatigued, there is a tendency to compress less firmly and more slowly; for this reason, it is recommended that rescuers trade off doing compressions every 2 minutes to prevent fatigue and optimize the quality of compressions. If the pads are too large, you can use alternative placements, such as the anterior-posterior pad placement: For infants, a manual defibrillator is preferred; however, if a manual defibrillator is not available, an AED designed for use on children and infants is the next best thing. For this reason, an extra link in the chain of survival- prevention- has been added. Please give Brainlest!
