Here is a practice of Adult CPR .
Made with a doll designed for this purpose.
The first thing we see is that the woman who is doing the practice is verifying if the person breathes.
And shaking the shoulders, to see if it’s conscious.
Although there are many ways to determine consciousness, this is one of them.
As seen, the position is that we indicated in our article Andinia.com
Kneeling at the height of the shoulders or chest of the patient.
Here we are showing how to maneuver the forehead-chin to clear the airway.
And so you can listen if the person really is breathing.
Also making observations to see if it has nothing in the mouth.
Any foreign object that can be removed.
Then it looks like the person performs mouth-to-mouth insufflation, holding his nose to keep the air in.
And their indicating what is the end point of the sternum , which formerly was the point from which to place the hand measured.
Now the hand rests directly over the center of the chest.
And here we see how they perform compressions.
Pulling his hand from above, intertwining the fingers of the bottom hand.
And thus preventing any hand contact on the ribs , but only the heel of the hand on the sternum.
As we made five compressions around, because it is a old video where this was the recommended protocol.
Now the protocol is 30 compressions to 2 breaths.
Here the pace is closer to correct him.
That has to be 100 compressions p / minute.
Here again we see how to perform the maneuver of front - chin.
Exaggerated in terms of power because it is obviously a dummy.
But that's the way to do it , raising the jaw using the thumb and forefinger, and with the other hand taking the front to back.
Then it's on to hear, see and feel for breathing.
See if the chest rises , hear and feel the breath in your ear to feel the air.
For that supports and looks to the chest.
Then you check your breath , here we see how to perform the breaths.
That is 2 , we repeat , every 30 compressions , according to current protocols.
