feedback devices can monitor CPR and provide real-time feedback for aspects such as - ✔✔Rate Depth Recoil How to open the airway for breaths - ✔✔step 1: place on hand on the victim's forehead, and push with your palm to tilt the head back. step 2: place fingers of the other hand under the bony part of the lower jaw, near the chin step 3: lift the jaw to bring chin forward How to use a pocket mask - ✔✔Step 1: position yourself at the victim's side. place the pocket mask on the victim's face, using the bridge of the nose as a guide for correct positioning step 2: seal the mask against the face. using your other hand that is closer to the top of the victim's head, place your index finger and thumb along the top edges of the mask. place the thumb of your other hand along the bottom edge of the mask
step 3: place the remaining finger of your second hand along the bony margin of the jaw and lift the jaw. Perform a head tilt--chin lift to open the airway step 4: while you lift the jaw, press firmly and completely around the outside edge of the mask to seal the pocket mask against the face. step 5: Deliver each breath over 1 second. enough to make the victim's chest rise. A bag-mask device - ✔✔provides positive-pressure ventilation. consists of a bag attached to a face mask. may include a 1 - way valve How to use a bag-mask device - ✔✔step 1 place the mask on the victim's face, using the bridge of the nose as a guide for correct position step 2: use E-C clamp technique. perform a head tilt place the mask on the face with the narrow portion at the bridge of the nose use the thumb and index finger of one hand to make a "C" on the side
follow the prompts step 2: choose adults pads for victims 8 YEARS OF AGE OR OLDER attach adhesive AED pads to the victim's bare chest when the AED prompts you, clear the victim during analysis. NO ONE touch victim step 4: if the AED advises a shock: it will charge and then tell you again to clear the victim. clear the victim before delivering the shock. press the shock button after any shock delivery, immediately resume CPR if no shock is need: Immediately resume CPR, starting with compressiosn pulse check for INFANTS - ✔✔step 1: place two fingers on the inside of upper arm, between the elbow and shoulder step 2: then press the fingers to attempt to feel the pulse for at least 5 but no more than 10 sec. if you don't feel a pulse within 10 seconds, or the hear rate is 60/min or less, begin high- quality CPR, starting with chest compressions
Pulse Check in Children - ✔✔step 1: place 2 or 3 fingers in the inner thigh, midway between the hip bone and pubic bone and just below the crease where the leg meets the torso step 2: feel for a pulse for at least 5 but no more than 10 seconds. if you do do not feel a pulse within 10 seconds, or the heart rate is 60/min or less begin high- quality CPR, starting with chest compressions. when performing high quality CPR on a child, what is the correct depth of compressions? - ✔✔approximately 2 (5 cm) inches critical components of chest compressions: children - ✔✔rate: 100 to 120/min depth: 2 inches hand placement: 2 hands or 1 hand on the lower half of the breastbone. chest recoil: allow complete recoil; do not leave on the chest minimizing interruptions: less than 10 sec Chest compressions: INFANTS - ✔✔rate: 100 to 120/min depth: 1 1/2 inches hand placement:
ratio for 1 rescuer is ratio for 2 rescuer is - ✔✔15: 30: you witness the collapse of a child. you are the only rescuer and do not have a mobile phone. After confirming no breathing and no pulse, what is your next step? - ✔✔leave the victim to activate the emergency response system and get AED the child is unresponsive after you tap his shoulders and shout, "are you okay?" he could be in cardiac arrest. What is your next step? - ✔✔for 5 to 10 seconds, look for no breathing or only gasping while simultaneously checking the carotid pulse after checking for breathing and a pulse, you verify that the child is not breathing normally but has a pulse. His airway is not obstructed. How do you deliver rescue breaths? - ✔✔ 1 breath every 2 to 3 seconds, or about 20 to 30 per minute you check the child's pulse after 2 minutes of providing rescue breaths and cannot feel a pulse. You immediately begin CPR. After performing CPR for 2 more minutes, the child still does not have a pulse and you are still alone. what is your next step? - ✔✔Get and use an AED
you are still performing CPR as a single rescuer. The AED detects a shockable rhythm and advises a shock. After delivering 1 shock, you immediately resume CPR with what ratio of compressions to breath - ✔✔cycles of 30 compressions and 2 breaths the infant is unresponsive when you tap her foot and shout are you okay. she could be in cardia arrest. What is your next step? - ✔✔for 5 to 10 seconds, look for no breathing or only gasping while simultaneously checking the brachial pulse the infant isnt breathing normally but has a pulse. What do you need to do? - ✔✔Provide rescue breaths, with 1 breath every 2 to 3 seconds The AED detects a shockable rhythm and advises a shock. After delivering 1 shock, you and your partner immediately resume CPR by using what ratio and which compressions technique? - ✔✔complete cycles of 15 compressions and 2 breaths and use the 2 thumb encircling hands on technique what are the recommened compressions to ventilation ratios for infants and children? - ✔✔30: 15: which team role keeps track of interruptions in compressions? - ✔✔time/recorder how can you achieve high chest compressions fraction? - ✔✔minimize pauses in chest compressions which of the following are resuscitation triangle roles in a high-performance team? - ✔✔compressor airway AED/Monitor/Defibrillator
no pauses in compressions naloxone - ✔✔medication that can temporarily reverse the effects of opioid overdose and may restore normal breathing. common routes of administration include intravenous, intramuscularm and intranasal. opioid associated life threatening emergency - ✔✔ 1 rescue breath every 6 seconds in ADULT 1 rescue breath every 2 to 3 seconds in a child or infant you should deliver back slaps and chest thrusts to a chocking infant who is responsive - ✔✔ 5 5 unwitnessed collapse - ✔✔if you are alone, start CPR with cycles of 30: if you are not alone, send someone to get the AED and begin CPR immediately. Use the AED as soon as it is avaible after 2 minutes if youre sitill alone activate the emergency response system and get an AED if not already done. critical components of chest compressions: ADULTS - ✔✔rate: 100 to 120/min. Depth: at least 2 in.
Hand placement: 2 hands on the lower half of the breastbone. Chest recoil: Allow complete recoil; do not lean on the chest Minimizing interruptions: limit interruptions to less than 10 sec
