You must take into consideration, the risk or aggravating factor that you might cause to the patient unconsciously. Before doing the CPR, or the cardio-pulmonary resuscitation, you must survey the scene for your personal protection. Of course, we cannot help someone if our own safety is at risk. After surveying the scene, you must ask any bystanders about the cause of the incident. In that case, you'll have a brief knowledge about what happen. Then, you may now ask for medical assistance, request someone to activate medical assistance while you perform the CPR. After that, you may now start the CPR that will run for 2 minutes. CPR provides a temporary solution for an individual who suffers cardiac arrest. PerformingCPR is really tough as a health care provider.

You are getting all the signs and symptoms of cardiac arrest and worse, you are alone. I am a licensed CPR specialist and if this happens to you, you just have to cough profusely to substitute the ventilation process in aided CPR. Monitor your respiration and your radial pulse for one full minute. If there is no change after 10 minutes, call for help. But research in the States suggests that this is proven helpful in treating these type of patients when they finally arrive in the emergency room. What if the victim is you?

And if you do now how to perform CPR, you must recite the steps while doing it. Why so? Because this helps the upcoming paramedics know how far you are in doing CPR and so that they can properly assess the situation and do actions that appropriate for the situation.

Giving CPR is not as easy as it may seems.. you need to know what you should do when an emergency comes. Sometimes if someone gave CPR and he don't really know the things to be consider.. it always ended up promoting further injury or danger to the victim. instead of prolonging life.. I agree what the author says here, "the first thing you have to do is to ask for help". you should activate medical assistance before giving rescue breathing.. it's important to check if the scene is safe before entering and give help.. remember that you should protect yourself..or else you will be another victim who will ask for help. and last...i think i should add...what my professor told me. He said..DON'T leave the victim... unless you will ask for help! I am a student nurse and I am a trained CPR provider.
