  2. Step 1: Determine Responsiveness • Check area for danger, e.g. chemcical spill, exposed electrical wire, falling items, fire, leaked fuel and gas. • Check casualty responsiveness • tap shoulders gently • call out loud “Hello! Hello! Are you OK?” No response – you have a casualty! Are you okay?

  3. Call loudly for “help”… • Call 9-1-1 for ambulance…. • Get someone to call for help!

  4. Step 2: Recovery Position

  5. Step 3: Open Airway • Place one hand on forehead & apply firm backward pressure with palm to tilt head back. • Place finger on the chin bone and lift jaw forward (jaw thrust). • Open mouth gently and remove any obvious obstructing foreign body, e.g. food, loose denture or secretions (finger sweep). “Head Tilt – Chin Lift”

  6. Step 4: Check Breathing • Do the “head tilt –chin lift” to open airway. • Place own ear & cheek over casualty’s mouth & nose for: • Look - for chest rise and fall • Listen – air escaping during exhalation • Feel – for the flow of air from casualty’s nose

  7. Step 5: Mouth-to-Mouth Breathing(Give Breaths) • Maintain “head tilt – chin lift” to open air way. • Pinch nose with thumb & index finger. • Cover mouth-to mouth fully. • Give 2 short breaths (1 sec each) & watch chest rise.

  12. Reassessment • Check for Pulse or Signs of Circulation (CCMB) • If No – Continue CPR 30:2 • If Yes – Check for external injuries; Place casualty in recovery position and maintain open airway • Monitor casualty every few minutes until help arrives.

  13. Key Points to Adult CPR Were you paying attention? I hope so! Here are some Key point you NEED to remember! • Check the person for consciousness • Call for help! • Open the airway and look, listen, and feel for signs of life • Give 30 chest compressions with both hands then open the airway and give 2 rescue breaths. • Continue the 30 to 2 ratio until EMT arrives.
