Do You will only use rescue breathing if the person is unconscious and does not have a pulse?
Rescue breathing is typically used when a person is unconscious and not breathing adequately or at all, regardless of whether they have a pulse. If the person has a pulse but is not breathing, rescue breaths can help provide oxygen to their lungs. However, if there is no pulse, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) should be initiated, which includes chest compressions along with rescue breaths if trained to do so. Always prioritize calling emergency services in such situations.
What is the medical term meaning breathing ocassional gasping breaths?
Agonal breathing is characterized by occasional gasping breaths.
What is the rescue breathing ratio per minute?
The rescue breathing ratio for adults is typically 1 breath every 5 to 6 seconds, which equates to about 10 to 12 breaths per minute. For children, the rate is slightly faster at 1 breath every 3 to 5 seconds, or about 12 to 20 breaths per minute. It's important to ensure that breaths are delivered gently and effectively to avoid complications. Always assess the situation for the need for additional CPR or emergency services.
If you have checked the casualty for breathing and found that his respiration is less than 2 breaths every fifteen seconds what should you do?
The mentioned condition is agonal breathing and is a medical emergency as agonal breaths will not sustain life. For the lay rescuer, call 911 (or have someone else call), give 2 breaths, and start CPR. For HCP CPR certification, they would give 2 breaths and check pulse; then give care as required.

Administer breaths at a rate of one breath every 3-5 seconds, ensuring each breath lasts about one second and makes the chest rise visibly. Continue giving rescue breaths until emergency medical services arrive or the child begins to breathe on their own. Monitor the pulse and be prepared to begin chest compressions if the pulse becomes absent.
What is procedure of artificial resuscitation?
Artificial resuscitation, commonly referred to as cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), involves a series of steps to restore breathing and circulation in an individual who has stopped breathing or whose heart has stopped beating. The process typically begins with calling for emergency help, followed by checking responsiveness and breathing. If the person is unresponsive and not breathing, chest compressions are performed at a rate of about 100-120 compressions per minute, along with rescue breaths if trained to do so. This cycle continues until emergency medical services arrive or the individual shows signs of recovery.

If you can't hear whether the person is breathing should you give CPR?
Tilt the head back to open the airway and look, listen, and feel for breathing; look for the chest to rise and fall, listen for the breaths, and feel for the breaths on your cheek. If you determine the person is not breathing, give 2 breaths and start CPR.
