  1. CPR MADE EASY(do not perform this unless you are specially trained, duh) By: Kevin Nicoli

  2. Step by Step Consent and call Back blows and abdominal thrusts 5 back blows are given between the scapula with one hand, while the other supports the chest of the choking victim. • Signs of choking include loss of breath, unable to talk, and unable to cough. • If the person in conscious, FIRST ask if they are choking THEN ask if you can aid them. DIRECT someone nearby to call 911, do not ask them, call them out specifically. Keep one foot between the victim’s legs for support, and perform 5 abdominal thrusts. REPEAT BACK BLOWS AND ABDOMINAL THRUSTS UNTIL: The obstructing object comes out Emergency medical personnel arrive You are too tired to continue The victim becomes unconscious

  3. Unconscious Choking • CPR • 1. Look, listen, and feel for breath and signs of life and obstructing object(s) in mouth. • 2. Attempt to give two breaths in through the mouth. • 3. If they don’t go in, begin CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation). • 4. CPR consists of 2 recovery breaths and 30 chest compressions. 5. After the first set of chest compressions check for any object that may have come up. 6. Remove object 7. Repeat step 4 (2 breaths then 30 compressions then repeat until - 1. You see obvious signs of life 2. Emergency medical personnel arrive 3. You are too tired to continue Compress the chest 1 1/2 – 2 inches 30 times (“1 and 2 and 3 and…”). This is done at a moderately quick pace, about 100/min Mouth to mouth recovery breaths are performed 2 at a time for each set of 30 chest compressions. Each breath should take 1 second to perform and you will see the chest rise if the breath does go in.
