whta should i do if someone is chocking on an object in the air way? Type your answer here...
Look for the object; if there is no object in the mouth, attempt the 2 breaths. If breaths don't go in, repeat the sequence of compressions, look for object (sweep then if you see it), attempt the 2 breaths, etc until the breaths go in & you can check for a pulse.
Look in the mouth, sweep if you see the object; attempt to ventilate, 30 compressions if breaths don't go in; repeat sweep, breaths, compressions, until breaths go in.
If a choking victim is unresponsive and has no pulse, call emergency services immediately. Begin CPR by performing chest compressions at a rate of 100-120 compressions per minute. After every 30 compressions, open the airway and give 2 rescue breaths; then continue the cycle. If you can, check the mouth for any visible obstruction and remove it if it's safe to do so.
If an adult becomes unresponsive while choking: # Unresponsive is assumed meaning unconscious # Call 911 or local emergency number (have someone else call if available) # Tip head & check for signs of life # If no signs of life, give 2 breaths # If breaths do not go in, reposition head further back # If breaths still do not go in give 30 compressions # Look for object in mouth; if object seen sweep out # Give 2 breaths # If breaths do not go in, give 30 compressions # Look for object in mouth; if object seen sweep out # Give 2 breaths # Repeat sequence compressions, look & sweep if object seen, breaths until breaths go in # When breaths go in check for signs of life for 10 seconds maximum # Give CPR if no signs of life (30 compressions, 2 breaths)
give breaths without chest compressions
Give rescue breaths without compressions
Give rescue breaths without compressions
give chest compressions without breaths
To give mouth-to-mask breaths during CPR, first ensure the scene is safe, then position the victim supine on a firm surface. Open the airway using the head-tilt, chin-lift maneuver, and place the mask over the victim's mouth and nose, ensuring a good seal. Pinch the victim's nose, give two breaths lasting about 1 second each, watching for chest rise. Continue with chest compressions, alternating with breaths as needed, typically at a ratio of 30 compressions to 2 breaths.
Gasping breaths, coughing, inability to breathe, gagging etc.
