when did mouth to mouth start
Yes.
A cardiopulmonary resuscitation, or CPR, involves restoring breathing to the victim. To do this, it is common to use mouth to mouth and chest presses.
uhh yes it can be.
the air from your mouth pushes into the other persons so that they breath
Give mouth to mouth resuscitation to an infant or child that isn't breathing. If an adult shows no signs of life, go directly to CPR.
Mouthpieces and mouth barriers are essential to the safety of both the rescuer and the patient, it prevents direct contact of the mouth and bodily fluids. And which resuscitation devices in particular?

The preferred technique for removing secretions from the mouth and nose of a newborn requiring resuscitation is using a bulb syringe or a suction device. Gentle suction should be applied to the mouth first, followed by the nose if necessary, to clear any obstructive secretions. This helps maintain a clear airway and facilitates effective ventilation during resuscitation efforts. Care should be taken to avoid excessive suction pressure to prevent trauma to the delicate tissues.
Mouth-to-mouth resuscitation has its roots in ancient practices, but it was formally documented in the 16th century by the physician Giovanni Maria Lancisi. However, it gained prominence in the 20th century, particularly after the 1956 publication of guidelines by the American Heart Association, which emphasized its use in emergency situations. The technique became widely recognized as a critical part of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in the 1960s.
Suction the mouth before the nose.
No, it is not possible to contract HIV through mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. HIV is primarily transmitted through direct blood-to-blood contact, sexual fluids, or from mother to child during childbirth or breastfeeding. The saliva of an HIV-positive person contains very low levels of the virus, and the risk of transmission through saliva is negligible. Therefore, performing mouth-to-mouth resuscitation on a drowning victim does not pose a risk for HIV transmission.
