Let's take a look at one rescuer, for the lay person, CPR for the child.
We're gonna check the scene for safety,
then apply gloves, CPR shield with a one-way barrier.
You'll find this with some, but you'll also find a mask, a key-ring mask, which will come out of a key-chain kit.
We'll use that when we do the actual practice through, so you'll get a chance to see what that looks like.
Just remember to have personal protective equipment with you when you're doing your CPR.
We're going to assess the patient for responsiveness and breathing by tapping.
"Are you alright? Are you okay?"
This child is not breathing, not responding.
"You in the plaid shirt, go call 911, I've got a child who's unresponsive. Come back, I might need your help."
At that point, I'm going to go straight into 30 chest compressions, a third of the depth of the chest, more than 100 times a minute.
That's more than one a second.
1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and 5 and 6 and 7, up to 30, followed by two more breaths,
followed by 30 compressions, followed by two breaths.
We're gonna continue to do that, until someone comes with an AED or help arrives after we've called 911.
The scene is safe, my gloves are on, my CPR mask is available.
Child are you okay? Can you hear me?
They don't appear to be breathing normally.
And there's no response, they're not moving.
You in the plaid shirt, go call 911 and come back, I might need your help.
1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and 5 and 6 and 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25...
26, 27, 28, 28, 30. Compressing at least one third the depth of the chest.
Tilting the head back.
1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and 5 and 6 and 7. Up to 30 again, followed by two breaths.
I'm going to continue to do this thirty compressions to two breaths til an AED arrives or until emergency medical response comes and helps.
