What else can I help you with?
You must check adequate breathing before giving breaths?
Check for adequate breathing for 10 seconds; the chest should clearly rise for breathing to be effective.
You must check adequate breathing before giving breaths to an unresponsive adult victim You do this by looking for chest rise and feeling for airflow through the victim's nose or mouth What other?
Listen for breaths from the nose and mouth of the victim. Remember: Look, Listen, and Feel.
You must check adequate breathing before giving breaths to an unresponsive adult victim You do this by looking for chest rise and feeling for airflow through the victims nose or mouth What other sign?
Checking the signs of life, to determine what would you look for is:1. Look to see if the chest is rising and falling2. Listen for breaths from the mouth and nose3. Feel on your cheeks respiration's from the mouth and noseIf these are absent, there are no signs of life; check them for 10 seconds and if absent, immediately start CPR.
What are the condtions that must exisi before performing CPR and how are such condtions are recongnized?
Adult: Tip head & check for breathing. If no breathing, give 2 breaths & start CPR 30 compressions/2 breaths. Infant & Child: Tip head & check for breathing. If no breathing, give 2 breaths. Check pulse (Infant brachial, child carotid). If no pulse start CPR 30 compressions/2 breaths.
How would you assess for adequate circulation before starting compressions on an unresponsive victim?
check a carotid pulse for not less then 5, but no more then 10 seconds
How many seconds do you wait before giving a rescue breath to an adult?
Once no breathing is confirmed, do not wait at all to give breaths.
You must check adequate breathing before giving rescure breaths to an unresponsive adult victims what other signs should asses?
Listen for breathing sounds coming out of the mouth and nose. Look for other body movements down the long axis of the body. Note skin color as well for an additional indicator. Look, listen and feel are the key points.
When would you start chest compression's in an unresponsive victim?
That depends...if you happen upon an unresponsive victim, you need to check to see if they are breathing and if they have a pulse first. Look, listen, and feel for 10-15 seconds. If they are pulseless and apneic (not breathing) you should perform chest compressions and rescue breathing immediately, at a ratio of 30 compressions to 2 breaths, @ 100 compressions/minute. If they do have a pulse, but are apneic, perform rescue breathing only, @ 1 breath every 5 seconds. If you are alone and happen upon an "un-witnessed" collapse and you don't know how long they've been down, do CPR for 2 minutes, and then try to go for help. If the collapse is "witnessed", call for help first, then begin CPR. Source: Emergency Medical Technician
You go into a room and find a patient on the floor bleeding profusely from a head wound and unresponsive?
Immediately assess the scene for safety before approaching the patient. Call for emergency medical assistance while checking for responsiveness and breathing. If the patient is unresponsive and not breathing, begin CPR and apply direct pressure to the head wound to control the bleeding. Continue to monitor the patient's condition until help arrives.
What is the process called when marine mammals take several deep breaths then rapidly exhale before a dive?

Breaths per minute before exercise Nathan 20 breaths per minute after exercise 35?
yes
What to do next when choking adult becomes unresponsive?
If a choking adult becomes unresponsive, first call for emergency medical assistance immediately. Then, carefully lower the person to the ground and begin CPR, starting with chest compressions. Before each set of breaths, check the mouth for any visible obstruction and, if found, try to remove it with a finger sweep. Continue CPR until emergency responders arrive or the person shows signs of recovery.
