Should one start chest compressions CPR on a person who passes out after unsuccessful attempts at Heimlich?
Melissaschreiber
Chest compressions are for cardiac problems, to maintain some blood circulation. The Heimlich Maneuver is for a blocked airway. If the person has a blocked airway and Heimlich did not clear it, chest compressions are not going to help. Find other ways to clear the airway.
