PS: CPR stands for CardioPulmonary Resuscitation
Danger - check to make sure there is nothing that can harm you, the bystanders and the casual.

Response - complete COWS (Can you hear me?; Open your eyes; What's your name?; Squeeze my hands.)

Send for help - Call 000

Airways - Tilt the casuals head back a little bit and use pistol grip to open their mouth look in the mouth and make sure nothing is blocking their airways if so try and get it out.

Breathing - if you have got it out or there was nothing in their mouth and they are breathing then stop and reassure them till the ambulance arrive, but if they do not seem to be breathing LFS (Listen to their mouth if you can hear and Feel them breathing whilst doing that watch their stomach to See if they are breathing; if they are breathing then stop and reassure them till the ambulance arrive if not finish then Compressions.

Compressions - 30:2 which means 30 compressions to 2 breaths; keep going until the ambulance arrives.

Defibrillator - you are NOT to do this unless you are a trained paramedic; otherwise allow the trained professionals do this step; you have done all you can.

Answer 3

DR ABCD is an acronym used in first aid to remember the steps to follow in an emergency situation. It stands for Danger, Response, Airway, Breathing, Circulation, and Defibrillation. This mnemonic helps first responders quickly assess the situation and provide appropriate care to the individual in need.
