The American Red Cross lists seven stages to performing life-saving CPR. First, Make a quick assessment, wear personal protective equipment, (PPE) and evaluate the scene for safety. "If the person appears unresponsive, check for responsiveness, breathing, life-threatening bleeding, or other life-threatening conditions using shout-tap-shout."
It said, "If the person does not respond, and is not breathing, or only gasping, CALL 9-1-1 and get equipment, or tell someone to do so."
Beside the individual, bend over. Lay the individual down on their back on a solid, level surface.Perform thirty compressions on the chest. Two hands placed together in the middle of the chest. Shoulders squarely over hands with elbows locked is the proper body alignment.
The instructions continued, "Rate: 100 to 120 per minute. Allow chest to return to normal position after each compression. Give two breaths."
It continued, "Open the airway to a past-neutral position using the head-tilt/chin-lift technique.
'Pinch the nose shut, take a normal breath, and make complete seal over the person's mouth with your mouth."
The next step advises, "Ensure each breath lasts about one second and makes the chest rise. Allow air to exit before giving the next breath."
The next steps include, "If the first breath does not cause the chest to rise, re-tilt the head, and ensure a proper seal before giving the second breath."
It then says, "If the second breath does not make the chest rise, an object may be blocking the airway.Continue giving sets of 30 chest compressions and two breaths. Use an AED [defibrillator] as soon as one is available! Minimize interruptions to chest compressions to less than 10 seconds."
