The Process Of CPR New Jersey

By Scott Cole


This is a cardiopulmonary resuscitation that is offered to patients whose breathing or heartbeat has stopped due to drowning or heart attack. It is not done to resurrect a person but is done to help the supply of blood circulation in the brain and other important parts of the body. This blood supply is important to maintain the life of the victim until appropriate medical attention is obtained. Below is the process of administration of CPR New Jersey.

Check the scene and the person. Before you start administering first aid, you need to make sure that the area is secure. After looking around for sometime and you have confirmed a secure place ensure you know that the person require your help. Pat them on the shoulder and ask if they are okay. After confirming they need help then you can start administering the first aid help before getting a medical attention.

Call emergency number. You should call for emergency attention so that you become equipped that after a given period of time, there will be a qualified attention for your victim. If the person in need of help is in a critical condition, you will require the help of another person near you who can call the number while you concentrate on giving the victim the required attention. This will ensure quality results are expected.

The process of opening the airway. Make sure the airway is open to avoid chocking the patient in the process of giving the first aid. Lay the person on the back and slightly lift their chin. This also eases the process of attending to them.

Know the breathing condition of the victim. You should have knowledge on what normal breathing is and the signs that confirm it. Bouts of breathing that comes and goes with moments are not signs of good breathing. For not more than 10 seconds, ensure you have the information about this condition to avoid a longer period which might lead to further complications. This ensures that first aid is given as fast as possible.

Push hard and fast. With the person in need of the help laid on the back, slightly tilt their head and raise their chin. Place one hand over the other on the middle of their chest. At least two inches deep compressions are to be given by the use of your full body weight. Ensure the rate of at least one hundred compressions is given per minute.

Administer rescue breath. Make sure you make a complete seal in between your mouth and the mouth of the victim. With this seal blow a reasonable amount of air into their breathing system until their chest rises. This is administered to the victim when their chin is raised high with their head slightly pushed back. Ensure the administration of two rescues breathes and continue with compressions.

You need to continue repeating the process as illustrated in the above steps continuously until results are obtained. These results are signs of them being alive such as normal breathing or talking. Seek the attention of a qualified medical practitioner.
