American Red Cross "First Aid and CPR/AED for the Workplace" (the handbook used in layperson CPR classes)
1. The scene must be safe
2. The victim must be unconscious or unresponsive
3. 911 would be called at this point- not a condition, but an important step.
4. The victim must not be breathing (some 'almost not-breathing' patterns are considered 'not breathing')
Up until 2006, you also had to check the pulse on an adult- that is no longer taught for adult CPR by any of the major certification groups.
However- a pulse check is still done by most of the groups if the victim is under 12 years old (8 for some programs)
You recognize if a victim is unresponsive by tapping the shoulder and shouting 'Are you OK?' No response = unconscious.
You check for breathing by putting your ear by the victim's mouth, then watch the chest. Look, listen, and feel for evidence of breathing for up to 10 seconds.

The 4 R's in CPR are... -Risk -Recognize -React -Resuscitate
The 4 Rs in CPR refer to Recognize, Respond, Rescue, and Reassess. Recognize the signs of a cardiac arrest, such as unresponsiveness and lack of breathing. Respond by calling for help and initiating CPR. Rescue involves performing chest compressions and rescue breaths, while reassess means to evaluate the victim's condition regularly and continue CPR until emergency services arrive or the person shows signs of recovery.
Cardiac arrest
Compression only (cardiocerebral) resuscitation which is basically CPR without artificial respiration. Rhythmic abdominal compression-CPR which works by forcing blood from the blood vessels around the abdominal organs There is another form called "Cough CPR" but this is not certified by the American Heart Association but it does recognize a limited legitimate use of the coughing technique
The four "R's" of CPR are Recognition, Rapid Response, Rescue Breaths, and Restoration of Circulation. These steps are essential to provide effective and timely care in the event of a cardiac emergency.
You not allowed to perform CPR if: 1. There is danger to your own life 2. If a guardian of the individual will not give you permission to perform CPR 3. There is a verified DNR physician order 4. The person doesn't need CPR 5. Higher level medical personell arrive to take over and ask you to stop CPR

Start CPR when signs of life are not present. To check for signs of life, tip head and check for breathing. For an adult, if they are not breathing, give 2 rescue breaths and start CPR. For a child or infant, if not breathing and no pulse, start CPR. Stop CPR for the following conditions: An AED becomes available, more advanced medical personnel arrive to take over (or another trained person), the scene becomes unsafe, the patient shows signs of life, or you are too tired to continue.
The same steps are taught in school as in a regular CPR class. The basic steps are contained in the 3 C's which are Check, Call & Care. * Check: Check scene for safety and check victim. * Call: Call 911. * Care: Care for the conditions you find; CPR 30 compressions, 2 breaths.
