 C.P.R.
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) consists of mouth-
to-mouth respirations and chest compressions. CPR
allows oxygenated blood to circulate to vital organs
such as the brain and heart. CPR can keep a person
alive until more advanced procedures (such as
defibrillation - an electric shock to the chest) can
treat the cardiac arrest. CPR started by a bystander
doubles the likelihood of survival for victims of
cardiac arrest.

1. CALL

Check the victim for

unresponsiveness. If there
is no response, “Call 911
and Get the AED” and
return to the victim. In
most locations the
emergency dispatcher can
assist you with CPR
instructions.

IN THREE SIMPLE STEPS

2. Compress Chest

Begin chest
compressions. Push down on
the chest at least 2 inches
(5 cm) 30 times right
between the nipples. Pump
at the rate of 100-120
minute. Allow for complete
chest recoil after each
compression. Minimize
interruptions in chest
compressions.

IN THREE SIMPLE STEPS

3. Airway and Breathing

Tilt the head back and lift

the chin. If not breathing,
pinch nose and cover the
mouth with yours and blow
until you see the chest
rise. Give 2 breaths. Each
breath should take 1
second.
 ADULT CPR
IN THREE SIMPLE STEPS

• CONTINUE WITH 2
BREATHS AND 30
COMPRESSIONS (5 Cycles)
UNTIL HELP ARRIVES
NOTE: This ratio is for
one-person & two-person
CPR. In two-person CPR
the person pumping the
chest stops while the other
gives mouth-to-mouth
breathing.
 CHILD CPR
Sequence: C-A-B
• CPR for Children
• CPR for children is similar to performing CPR for
adults. There are, however, 3 differences.
• 1) If you are alone with the child give 5 cycles (2
minutes) of CPR before calling 911.
• 2) Use the heel of one hand for chest
compressions. The compression rate is 100-
120/minute.
• 3) The compression depth is at least 1/3 of the
anterior-posterior diameter of the chest (about 2
inches).
 INFANT CPR
• Give 30 Compressions
• Give 30 gentle chest
compressions at the rate of at
least 100-120minute. Position
your 3rd and 4th fingers in the
center of the chest half an inch
below the nipples. The
compression depth is at least
1/3 of the anterior-posterior
diameter of the chest
(approximately 1 ½ inches).
• Repeat
• Repeat with 2 breaths and
30 compressions. After five
cycles, if you are alone, call
911 and continue the
sequence.
 INFANT CPR
• Open The Airway
• Open the airway using a head tilt
lifting of chin. Do not tilt the
head too far back.

• Give 2 Gentle Puffs

• If the baby is NOT breathing
give 2 small gentle puffs. Cover
the baby's mouth and nose with
your mouth. Each breath should
be 1 second long. You should see
the baby's chest rise with each
breath.
