For rescue breaths to be effective, it is paramount that the airway is clear. In rare cases where the patient vomits, simply tilt them on their side and sweep a gloved finger in the mouth to clear the vomit.
It is important to remember that you should never put yourself at risk during a first aid emergency situation. If you feel uncomfortable about doing mouth to mouth with a vomit-covered mouth, you have the right to not do so. Once again, this comes to remembering to use a face shield when doing CPR and making sure the airway is clear before commencing.
There is a difference between having vomit in your mouth and literally vomiting it out. If the patient literally vomits it out, then CPR will not be needed as it shows that their signs of life are present.
Other causes of vomit include alcohol overdose and poisoning.

How can cancer be detected?
Cancer markers, biopsies, blood samples, autopsy and bone marrow aspirates. Not sure if there are more ways.
What agent causes Chest x-rays show bilateral infiltrates with bronchial aspirates rich in protein?
Chest X-rays showing bilateral infiltrates with bronchial aspirates rich in protein are often indicative of pneumonia, particularly caused by bacterial pathogens such as Streptococcus pneumoniae or Staphylococcus aureus. Additionally, conditions like acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) or pulmonary edema can present similarly, often related to infections, trauma, or other inflammatory processes. The presence of high protein levels in bronchial aspirates suggests a response to infection or inflammation in the lungs.
What is the nerve agent causes protein rich bronchial aspirates and difficulty breathing?
The nerve agent that causes protein-rich bronchial aspirates and difficulty breathing is likely sarin (GB) or a similar organophosphate compound. These agents inhibit acetylcholinesterase, leading to an accumulation of acetylcholine at neuromuscular junctions, which can result in respiratory distress and bronchorrhea. The increased bronchial secretions and resultant pulmonary edema are characteristic symptoms of nerve agent exposure. Immediate medical intervention is critical in such cases.
What might cause 20 coworkers to develop cough excess fluid in their lungs and difficulty breathing Chest x rays show bilateral infiltrates with bronchial aspirates rich in protein several die?
Ricin
Over 20 people who worked together developed cough excess fluid in their lungs and difficulty breathing Chest x rays show bilateral infiltrates with bronchial aspirates rich in protein Several die?
The symptoms and findings suggest an outbreak of a severe respiratory illness, likely caused by an infectious agent, possibly linked to environmental exposure since multiple individuals were affected. The presence of bilateral infiltrates on chest X-rays and protein-rich bronchial aspirates indicates significant lung inflammation, potentially from conditions such as pneumonia or Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). The rapid deterioration and fatalities highlight the seriousness of the situation, warranting immediate medical investigation and intervention. Such cases should be reported to public health authorities for further epidemiological assessment and to prevent further cases.
