Step Critical Performance Criteria ✓ if done
correctly
1-Rescuer Child BLS Skills Evaluation
During this first phase, evaluate the first rescuer’s ability to initiate BLS and deliver high-quality CPR for 5 cycles.
1ASSESSES: Checks for response and for no breathing or only gasping (at least 5 seconds but no
more than 10 seconds)
2Sends someone to ACTIVATE emergency response system
3Checks for PULSE (no more than 10 seconds)
4GIVES HIGH-QUALITY CPR:
• Correct compression HAND PLACEMENT Cycle 1:
• ADEQUATE RATE: At least 100/min (ie, delivers each set of 30 chest compressions in
18 seconds or less), using 1 or 2 hands
Cycle 2: Time:
• ADEQUATE DEPTH: Delivers compressions at least one third the depth of the chest
(approximately 2 inches [5 cm]) (at least 23 out of 30)
Cycle 3:
• ALLOWS COMPLETE CHEST RECOIL (at least 23 out of 30) Cycle 4:
• MINIMIZES INTERRUPTIONS: Gives 2 breaths with pocket mask in less than 10 seconds Cycle 5:
Second Rescuer AED Skills Evaluation and SWITCH
During this next phase, evaluate the second rescuer’s ability to use the AED and both rescuers’ abilities to switch roles.
5DURING FIFTH SET OF COMPRESSIONS: Second rescuer arrives with AED and bag-mask device,
turns on AED, and applies pads
6First rescuer continues compressions while second rescuer turns on AED and applies pads
7Second rescuer clears victim, allowing AED to analyze—RESCUERS SWITCH
8If AED indicates a shockable rhythm, second rescuer clears victim again and delivers shock
First Rescuer Bag-Mask Ventilation
During this next phase, evaluate the first rescuer’s ability to give breaths with a bag-mask device.
9Both rescuers RESUME HIGH-QUALITY CPR immediately after shock delivery: Cycle 1 Cycle 2
• SECOND RESCUER gives 15 compressions (in 9 seconds or less) immediately after shock
delivery (for 2 cycles)
Time:
• FIRST RESCUER successfully delivers 2 breaths with bag-mask device (for 2 cycles)
AFTER 2 CYCLES, STOP THE EVALUATION
• If the student completes all steps successfully (a ✓ in each box to the right of Critical Performance Criteria), the student passed this
scenario.
• If the student does not complete all steps successfully (as indicated by a blank box to the right of any of the Critical Performance
Criteria), give the form to the student for review as part of the student’s remediation.
• After reviewing the form, the student will give the form to the instructor who is reevaluating the student. The student will
reperform the entire scenario, and the instructor will notate the reevaluation on this same form.
• If the reevaluation is to be done at a different time, the instructor should collect this sheet before the student leaves the classroom.
