  • Pinch the victim's nose to close nostrils, keeping the airway open by the head-tilt, chin-lift.
  • Take a deep breath and seal your lips around the outside of the victim's mouth, preferably with a CPR barrier mask, creating an airtight seal.
  • Give the victim 2 full breaths (1 second each), taking your lips off the victim's mouth to inhale between each breath.
  • Check for chest rising and falling with each breath you give. The rising of the chest during your exhalations indicates the effectiveness of your breaths.
  • Perform 5 sets of the 30-to-2 cycle within 2 minutes.
  • Continue cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) until an automated external defibrillator (AED) is applied, the person starts to move, help arrives, or until you can no longer continue.

What are the steps for giving mouth to mask breath's for CPR?

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.
