As a first responder, it is difficult to control breathing. You keep the airway open, and if breathing is inadequate, you perform rescue breathing. If oxygen is available and you are trained, you may use it. If a BVM is available, with oxygen, that is the best case scenario. In a more controlled setting, such as a hospital, they may use medications and/or a respirator.
