Exposing the chest gives you several advantages:
- It can reveal hidden injuries that you otherwise would have missed
- It facilitates attachment of the AED pads
- Exposing the chest makes it easier to find your hand position for compressions
- It makes it easier to monitor equal rise and fall of the chest during rescue breaths.
