Click REPLY below and type a brief summary of the content of the video. When
applying CPR to an adult and giving 2 breaths – How hard do you blow? (if you
need refresher; Page 45 in your book can help). Why is this significant? Be sure your
summary is at least 5 sentences long. After you make your post, read the posts of
other students and reply to at least 2 (two) other posting with any additional
remarks you’d like to make.

Hello everyone,
CPR consists of thirty chest compressions followed by two breaths. When giving
compressions, it is important to push hard and fast. The chest must be compressed to a
depth of at least two inches and at a rate of 100 to 200 compressions per minute and
the chest must also be allowed to recover to its natural posture after each compression.
Breath supplies oxygen to someone who is not breathing as breaths with chest
compression minimize a person’s brain injury. Each breath should last about one second
and make the chest begin to rise. It’s crucial to keep in mind that you shouldn’t lower
your head when taking breaths. Afterward, you should allow the chest to fall and air to
exit between breaths; only after it, you can give the person a second breath. If the chest
does not rise on the initial rise, you should open an airway and take a second breath. If,
however, nothing has changed after the second breath, a blockage to the airway may be
the cause. The person may be in cardiac arrest due to choking. There are 30 chest
compressions and two breaths in each CPR cycle and if you believe that the cardiac
arrest was brought on by drowning, provide two initial breaths before starting CPR. You
must ensure that you properly go from breathing to chess compressions and that
interruptions last no longer than ten seconds. A person should continue to give CPR
cycles until; he notices that the victim is breathing, an AED is ready, another trained
person is ready to handle compressions, EMS personnel arrive, the person giving first
aid gets tired or the scene becomes hazardous.

Hi everyone!
We should take a normal breath, make a complete seal over the person’s mouth with
our mouth, and blow into the person’s mouth to give the first rescue breath.Then we
should take another breath, make a seal, and give the second rescue breath. Each rescue
breath should last about 1 second and make the person’s chest rise. After we finish
giving 2 rescue breaths, return to giving compressions as quickly as possible. The
process of giving 2 rescue breaths and getting back to compressions should take less
than 10 seconds. Getting oxygen into the body and circulated to heart tissue will
stimulate the heart to beat faster and become stronger.
