2. C.P.R.
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) consists of mouth-to-mouth respirations and chest compressions. CPR allows oxygenated blood to circulate to vital organs such as the brain and heart. CPR can keep a person alive until more advanced procedures (such as defibrillation - an electric shock to the chest) can treat the cardiac arrest. CPR started by a bystander doubles the likelihood of survival for victims of cardiac arrest.

4. ADULT CPR CPR SEQUENCE: C – A- B
1. CALL Check the victim for unresponsiveness. If there is no response, “Call 911 and Get the AED” and return to the victim. In most locations the emergency dispatcher can assist you with CPR instructions. 

5. ADULT CPR IN THREE SIMPLE STEPS
2. Compress Chest Begin chest compressions.  Push down on the chest at least 2 inches (5 cm) 30 times right between the nipples.  Pump at the rate of minute. Allow for complete chest recoil after each compression. Minimize interruptions in chest compressions.  

6. ADULT CPR IN THREE SIMPLE STEPS
3. Airway and Breathing Tilt the head back and lift the chin.  If not breathing, pinch nose and cover the mouth with yours and blow until you see the chest rise. Give 2 breaths.  Each breath should take 1 second. 

7. ADULT CPR IN THREE SIMPLE STEPS
CONTINUE WITH 2 BREATHS AND 30 COMPRESSIONS (5 Cycles) UNTIL HELP ARRIVES NOTE: This ratio is for one-person & two-person CPR.  In two-person CPR the person pumping the chest stops while the other gives mouth-to-mouth breathing.

8. CHILD CPR Sequence: C-A-B
CPR for Children
CPR for children is similar to performing CPR for adults. There are, however, 3 differences.
1) If you are alone with the child give 5 cycles (2 minutes) of CPR before calling 911.
2) Use the heel of one hand for chest compressions. The compression rate is /minute.
3) The compression depth is at least 1/3 of the anterior-posterior diameter of the chest (about 2 inches).

9. INFANT CPR
Give 30 Compressions
Give 30 gentle chest compressions at the rate of at least minute. Position your 3rd and 4th fingers in the center of the chest half an inch below the nipples. The compression depth is at least 1/3 of the anterior-posterior diameter of the chest (approximately 1 ½ inches).
Repeat
Repeat with 2 breaths and 30 compressions. After five cycles, if you are alone, call 911 and continue the sequence.

10. INFANT CPR Open The Airway
Open the airway using a head tilt lifting of chin. Do not tilt the head too far back.
Give 2 Gentle Puffs
If the baby is NOT breathing give 2 small gentle puffs. Cover the baby's mouth and nose with your mouth. Each breath should be 1 second long. You should see the baby's chest rise with each breath.
