Excessive ventilation during CPR can lead to complications such as increased intrathoracic pressure, which may hinder effective chest compressions and reduce blood flow to vital organs. It can also cause hyperventilation, leading to respiratory alkalosis and a decrease in carbon dioxide levels, which may impair the body's ability to circulate oxygen effectively. This can ultimately reduce the chances of successful resuscitation and recovery. Therefore, it's crucial to deliver ventilations at a controlled rate and volume.

What happens when breaths are given to rapidly and the stomach fills with air during CPR?

When breaths are given too rapidly during CPR, air can enter the stomach instead of the lungs, leading to gastric inflation. This can increase intra-abdominal pressure, potentially complicating ventilation and reducing the effectiveness of chest compressions. It may also cause regurgitation, increasing the risk of aspiration. Proper technique and timing of breaths are crucial to avoid these complications.

Do you use the same technique for chest compressions during CPR as when giving care for an obstructed airway?

In an unconscious victim you perform CPR the same for an obstructed airway as you would for regular CPR with one exception, before attempting ventilation you should look for the object in the mouth and if you see it, remove it. But never perform a blind finger sweep!
