CardioPulmonary Resuscitation(CPR)
Matthew GiannettiGrades 9-12
Basic Overview
• Emergency procedure that is performed in an effort to manually preserve intact brain function until further measures are taken to restore spontaneous blood circulation and breathing in a person in cardiac arrest.
How to Administer CPR
• C-C-C• A-B-C• Rescue Breaths • Chest Compressions• AED• Recovery Position
C-C-C
• CHECK– Check the scene, victim and surroundings for
safety first• CALL– Call 9-1-1 immediately!
• CARE– A-B-C…
A-B-C
• Airway
• Breathing
• Circulation
Airway
• To ensure the airway is open the rescuer must:
– Tilt the head back
– Lift chin
– Open victim’s mouth• Check for blockage (do not finger sweep unless object is
visible)
Breathing• Check to see if the victim is breathing by:
– Placing their ear over the victims mouth• Listen for breaths• Feel for breath against ear lobe
– Look at victim’s chest• Watch for rise and fall of chest
• The rescuer does this for 10 seconds
Circulation• Check the victim’s circulation by:– Taking the victim’s pulse from
• Carotid artery
• Radial artery
• Femoral artery
Pulse No Pulse
Rescue Breaths
• If victim is not breathing, administer 2 rescue breaths
• If the breaths DO NOT go in– Reposition the head (head tilt, chin lift)– Give 2 breaths again• If they do not go in again begin chest compressions
• If the breaths DO go in– Continue rescue breathing at a rate of 1 breath
every 5 seconds until help arrives
Chest Compressions
• If victim does not have a pulse start chest compressions immediately!– Find the nipple line with middle finger– Drag finger across to sternum – Place palm of hand on sternum – Place other hand on top of the first and interlock
fingers– Lock arms and use body weight to push down
Chest Compressions
• Compress the chest 1.5-2 inches– The sternum should crack if done correctly
• During CPR give 2 breaths for every 30 chest compressions.– Continue for 5 cycles then reevaluate victim or until
further help arrives
• CPR should be exhausting!
Tools Used During CPR
• AED
• Pocket Mask
• Bag Valve
• Oxygen
AED
• Automated External Defibrillator• Used when victim has an
irregular heart beat• Electrode pads are placed on the
upper right and lower left sides of the chest
Pocket Mask
• Pocket masks are used by the rescuer to administer CPR
• Uses a one way valve for rescue breathing
• Prevents any fluids that the victim may regurgitate from entering the rescuer’s mouth
Bag Valve
• The bag valve is used to give breaths of more oxygenated air to the victim
• The bag valve is used with the pocket mask
• Oxygen can be connected
Oxygen
• Oxygen can be connected to the bag valve to provide more oxygenated breaths during CPR
• After victim is resuscitated oxygen is provide trough a mask for recovery
Recovery Position
• Keeps the victims airway open
• Keeps airway from being blocked for an unconscious victim
• Prevents suffocation through obstruction of the airway

Practice!
• Find a group of 3 • Your group will be given a scenario card• Walk through the scenario with each other• Perform all roles:– First responder– Second responder– Victim
CPR Certification
• There are both classroom courses and online courses to become certified
• There is a fee however having lifesaving knowledge is invaluable
