Early CPR is an important link in the cardiac chain of survival because performing CPR provides oxygenated blood to the vital organs until an AED and more advanced medical personnel become available to take over to give advanced cardiac life support.

∙ 14y agoWhen the heart is not beating, the brain does not receive oxygen. When the brain doesn't receive oxygen, it begins to be damaged. The longer the brain goes without oxygen, the more serious and permanent the damage becomes. CPR is an artificial way of making the heart beat and providing the blood with fresh oxygen. The sooner this process begins, the higher the chance of survival of the patient, and the higher the chance that serious permanent brain damage is not sustained.

The cardiac chain begins with early recognition and access.
What is the first step of the pediatric chain of survival prevention of cardiac arrest?
If someone is with you have them call 911 while you check the child's ABCs. If no one is with you tend to the child for 2 minutes then call 911.

What is second link in the BLS?
There is a cardiac chain of survival: Link 1: Early recognition and access; Link 2: Early CPR; Link 3: Early defibrillation; Link 4: Early advanced medical care.
What is the first link in the chain of survival?
Early Access
What are the four steps to the cardiac chain of survival?
There are six steps in the chain of survival.The first and most important step is Prevention. This includes eating a healthy diet and doing regular exercise.The second step is Early Recognition. Recognising symptoms and signs is an very crucial part in the chain of survival.The third step is Early Access to Emergency Services.This means getting the patient to hospital as sson as possible.The fourth step is Early Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). Early effective CPR is necesary to increase the patient's rate of survival.The fifth steo is Early Defibrillation. Attach an Automated External Defibrillator as soon as readily available and you have been trained to do so.The final step which is undertaken in a hospital cardiac centre is Early Advanced Cardiac Care. This is care given by a cardiologist or cardiac surgeon at a hospital.
