Dr. Ajay Kumar Verma was telling that there are two main stages to CPR: the preparation stage and the CPR stage.
Preparation steps
Before performing CPR on an adult, use the following preparation steps:
Step 1. Call 108
First, check the scene for factors that could endanger you, such as traffic, fire, or falling masonry. Next, check the person. Do they need help? Tap their shoulder and shout, “Are you OK?”If they are not responding, call 108 or ask a bystander to call 108 before performing CPR. If possible, ask a bystander to go and search for an AED machine. People can find these in offices and many other public buildings.
Step 2. Place the person on their back and open their airway
Place the person carefully on their back and kneel beside their chest. Tilt their head back slightly by lifting their chin. Open their mouths and check for obstructions, such as food or vomit. If an obstruction is loose, remove it. Trying to grasp it may push it farther into the airway if it is not loose.
Step 3. Check for breathing
Place your ear next to the person’s mouth and listen for no more than 10 seconds. If you do not hear breathing or you only hear occasional gasps, begin CPR. If someone is unconscious but still breathing, do not perform CPR. Instead, if they do not seem to have a spinal injury, place them in the recovery position. Keep monitoring their breathing and perform CPR if they stop breathing.
CPR steps
Use the following steps to perform CPR:
Step 4. Perform 30 chest compressions Place one of your hands on the other and clasp them together. With the heel of the hands and straight elbows, push hard and fast in the center of the chest, slightly below the nipples.
Push at least 2 inches deep. Compress their chest at a rate of at least 100 times per minute, letting the chest rise fully between compressions.
Step 5. Perform two rescue breaths Ensure their mouth is clear, tilt their head slightly, and lift their chin. Pinch their nose shut, place your mouth entirely over theirs, and blow to raise their chest.If the person’s chest does not rise with the first breath, tilt their head. If it still does not rise with the second breath, the person might be choking.
Step 6. Repeat the cycle of 30 chest compressions and two rescue breaths until the person starts breathing or help arrives. If an AED arrives, carry on performing CPR until the machine is set up and ready to use.
