Chain of Survival: Adult
3 - Rapid defibrillation

5 - Integrated post-cardiac arrest care
Start compressions within 10 seconds of recognition of cardiac arrest.
Push hard, push fast: rate of 100/min with a depth of at least 2 in (5cm) for adults, approximately 2 in

High-quality CPR Allow complete chest recoil for each compression.
Minimize interruptions in compressions (limit to less than 10s).
Give effective breaths that make the chest rise.
Avoid excessive ventilation.
1 - Prevention of arrest
2 - Early high-quality CPR
3 - Rapid activation of the EMS (or other emergency response) system
