Emergency Escape Breathing Device
If a patient is not breathing it is also likely that their heart is not beating in a normal, effective rhythm or at all. The standard procedure is check if they are breathing - if not - they would begin CPR by performing 30 chest compressions for every 2 breaths into the mouth. Emergency personnel are also likely to have an automated defibrillator on hand - a device that when applied to the chest measures the electrical signals of the patient's heart and shocks them accordingly to try to restart the heart's normal rhythm - CPR is continued in between shocks. The patient would also likely have a mask on that supplies high concentrations of oxygen to help compensate for the lack of breathing or proper heart beat. The emergency personnel would likely administer this treatment in an ambulance while on their way to a hospital for specialist treatment.
Check for breathing as soon as the scene is safe, the patient is unconscious, and 911 (or the local emergency number) has been called.
