Chest compressions should not be interrupted for the placement of a trachea or endotracheal tube during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Continuous chest compressions are crucial for maintaining blood circulation to vital organs. If airway management is necessary, it should be performed quickly and efficiently, ideally by a trained provider, to minimize interruptions. However, if the airway is already secured, compressions can continue without interruption.
