Compression Only CPR

Key Points:

• Recommended for adult cardiac arrest victims when you witness them collapse.
• Appropriate to be used when mouth-to-mouth protective equipment such as a CPR shield or mask is not available.
• Bystanders may be more likely to provide care.

Steps for providing care:

1. Check for Responsiveness
2. Call EMS/911 or have a bystander call EMS/911
3. Check for normal breathing (if the victim is gasping this is not normal)
4. Begin compressions at a rate of 100 per minute, push hard and fast in the middle of the chest.
