When preforming CPR, chest compressions push on the structures in close proximity to the stomach which can cause pressure on the stomach causing the victim to regurgitate the stomach contents. When opening the airway, if not done properly, air can be blown into the stomach. Air pockets in the stomach can cause its contents to be brought up. Regurgitation is a more common occurrence then not.
