Review
• A person who is suffering from pain and
discomfort could be having a heart attack
• When you give rescue breaths you should
give a breath that last about one second
• Check for signs of life for no more than10
seconds
• A conscious chocking adult give 5 back
blows and 5 abdominal thrust.
• Why do you stop giving CPR
Review Continued
• In CPR how many cycles should you give
in 2 minutes? 5
• 30 compressions 2 breaths is one cycle of
CPR.
• What is the purpose of CPR?
