1.emphasis on high-quality CPR compression rate of at least per
minute.: 100
2.depth of compressions for children to adult: 2 inches
3.depth of compression for infants: 1/3 of anterior/posterior diameter of chest. 1 1/2"
4.compressions should be started what time limit?: 10 seconds of recognition of cardiac arrest.
5.what are the signs of cardiac arrest?: victim is unresponsive/not breathing/in- effective breathing
6.time frame to start cpr once suspect of cardia arrest?: 10 seconds.
7.you should take no longer than seconds to check for a .: 10, pulse
8.what is the first rescuer to do upon arriving at the scene?: check for safety.
9. lone rescuer compression-ventilation ratio of to .-
: 30 compressions to 2 ventilations
10.explain hand placement for chest compressions: the heel of on hand
should be placed on the center of the chest on the lower half of the breastbone.
11.when compressions are of the appropriate depth it creates to the
body.: blood flow
12. allows the heart to refill with blood and is necessary for chest compressions to create blood flow: chest recoil
13.do not move the victim while CPR is in progress unless the victim is in a .: dangerous environment
14.the ventilation technique is not recommended for a lone rescuer during CPR: bag mask
15.avoiding excessive ventilation also avoids .: gastric inflation .during 2 rescuer adult CPR, rescuers switch duties after cycles. (or 2 minutes): 5
17. the second rescuer's' job is to
an open airway and to five .: maintain, breaths
18.what is the first step when using an AED after the victim is secured?: turn it on.
