BLS Training
2- Rescuer infant BLS sequence - ✔✔✔1. check for response and breathing

2. if no response and no breathing/only gasping, send second rescuer to active ERS and get AED

3. check brachial pulse

4. if no pulse, HR <60/min, perform cycles of compressions and breaths at 30:2 ratio until second
rescuer arrives, then switch to 15:2

5. use AED as soon as it arrives



Basic Steps of CPR for adults - ✔✔✔1) unresponsive, no breathing or no normal breathing -> activate
ERS -> get AED -> check pulse -> start CPR -> check rhythm shock if needed per AED



Changes in 2010 AHA Guidelines - ✔✔✔- change in BLS sequence to CAB

- continued emphasis on high-quality CPR

- removal of "look, listen and feel for breathing" from assessment step

-routine use of cricoid pressure not recommended

-continued de-emphasis of pulse check

- use of manual defibrillator preferred to an AED in infants



critical characteristics of high-quality CPR - ✔✔✔-start compressions within 10 secs of recognition of
cardiac arrest

-push hard, push fast. rate of at least 100/min, depth of atleast 2 in for adults, approx 2 in for children,
and approx 1.5 in for infants

-allow complete chest recoil after each compression

-minimize interruptions in compressions

-give effective breaths that make chest rise

-avoid excessive ventilation
