In the event that a head or neck injury is suspected, use the jaw-thrust procedure to limit neck and spine motion. The head tilt-chin lift maneuver may be applied if the task push is ineffective in opening the airway.
This is false. Only start compressions if the pulse stays below 60 beats per minute and there are indicators of poor perfusion.
After determining that the location is secure, the first thing to do is to see if anyone is responsive.
After calling 911 and sending someone to get an AED, check for respiration and the carotid pulse.
The pediatric patient receives rescue breaths at a rate of one breath every two to three seconds or around 20 to 30 breaths per minute.
You should start rescue breathing as soon as you determine respiratory arrest is happening. AED analysis will be prepared if an AED is attached at this point in case the patient loses their pulse. Most AEDs are equipped with rescue breathing apparatus. Rescue breathing equipment should be checked in the AED container. Start utilizing mouth-to-mouth resuscitation to start rescue breathing if a rescue breathing apparatus is not available.
Every two minutes or so, the pulse should be checked again. Start chest compressions during CPR if there isn't a pulse.
Provide rescue breathing at a rate of 1 breath every 6 seconds to the adult and teenage victim who is experiencing respiratory arrest.
The next step after determining responsiveness is to call emergency services and get an AED because there are bystanders nearby who can help with these activities as you continue with the BLS routine.
Verifying whether the patient is responsive or not comes after the scene has been made safe.
The next step is to concurrently check for breathing and a pulse after making sure that emergency services are called and an AED is secured. Make sure the time allotted for this check is under 10 seconds.
