Thank you so much for your comment Brittany, we're happy to hear you found our video informative and empowering. If you have access to it, we would also recommend in-person CPR training to accompany the knowledge you have gained from this video. CPR saves lives, the more people able and willing to perform CPR in our communities in cases of emergency, the better. Thank you again.

[@VictorChangInstitute]

Thank you for your comment. Compression-only CPR is the recommended CPR technique for untrained bystanders. There are several reasons for this, including an increased willingness for a bystander to perform compression-only CPR and the elimination of any confusion around how to accurately perform rescue breaths. Compressions alone can still significantly increase the person’s chances of survival.

[@kbarnbrook4993]

No it isn't, for a start off the person needs to be on a solid surface, no use trying this if the person is unconscious on the bed, also the line of the chest should be measured under the arm pits, don't just start pushing on the sternum, also 3 lots of 6 compression then try mouth to mouth, two breaths, making sure to pinch the nose, then carry on with the 6 compression, make sure the airways aren't blocked with false teeth, etc, put your hand on the chin and pull back so that the air ways are clear, and the neck isn't bent.

[@BernadethaLucas]

What can you do if a person have large breasts

[@VictorChangInstitute]

@@BernadethaLucas Thanks for your question. There is no difference when performing CPR for a man or woman. Some considerations when performing CPR may include the removal of the underwire bra if the use of an AED is required. Research has shown that bystanders are less likely to perform CPR on women than they are on men due to concerns over inappropriate touching, fear of causing injury and poor awareness of cardiac arrest in women. Though these concerns are understandable, it is best to assume the person is in cardiac arrest and requires urgent assistance. We hope this helps.

This seems to have some omissions... Do you check for a pulse, and how? How long to do cardio pumps between breathes? What happens if you can't confirm either breathing or pulse but proceed with CPR, while they actually are still breathing?

[@VictorChangInstitute]

Hi Max, Thank you for watching our video and for your questions. The current Australian Resuscitation Council guidelines do not require bystanders to check for the victim’s pulse. Compression-only CPR is the recommended CPR technique for untrained bystanders. There are several reasons for this, including an increased willingness for a bystander to perform compression-only CPR and the elimination of any confusion around how to accurately perform rescue breaths. Compressions alone can still significantly increase the person’s chances of survival. CPR should only be performed where victim is not breathing or not breathing normally. If rescue breaths are being attempted, the current Australian Resuscitation Council guidelines for CPR are 30 chest compressions and 2 rescue breaths. You can find additional information about CPR on our website: www.victorchang.edu.au/cpr. We hope this helps.

What if you do the CPR on ok person ? Can you do this experiment on living person

[@VictorChangInstitute]

Thank you for watching our video and for your question. CPR is needed when a person is unconscious, breathing abnormally (e.g. gasping for air or grunting), or not breathing. To protect bystanders who are acting in good faith, all Australian states and territories have Good Samaritan legislation. It is not recommended to practice CPR on someone who is not presenting as described above. We hope this helps.

@INTROMED yes respiratory arrest is very sinister especially in pediatrics .Let me reword my comment if someone has a good healthy pulse there is no reason to start compressions. If someone’s pulse rate drops to a super low level then you should start cpr. But it’s important to confirm it before you start because they can have a altered mental status for other reasons

[@maddog980]

@INTROMED it’s also not recommended to remove something from the airway unless you can visually see it and you can remove it because you can pose the risk of pushing it down further into their airway

Is it possible that they are not breathing but heart is beating

[@VictorChangInstitute]

Hello, Thank you for watching our video and for your question. Yes it is possible and is called 'respiratory arrest', a condition that exists at any point a patient stops breathing or is ineffectively breathing. Respiratory arrest often occurs at the same time as cardiac arrest, but not always. We hope this helps.

I think most countries today are just going with chest compressions and the AED only.

check for pulse?

[@VictorChangInstitute]

Hello Jason, Thank you for watching our video and for your question. We have reached out to Julia Zuza from Response for Life on your behalf and she shares the following advice: "The current Australian Resuscitation Council guidelines do not require bystanders to check for the victim’s pulse." We hope this helps. Best wishes, the VCCRI Communications Team

Damar Hamlin brought me here cuz they said this is what really saved his life

[@VictorChangInstitute]

Thank you for sharing your story John, we're so thankful you found this helpful. It is also good to hear from across the seas that Damar Hamlin is doing well - and yes, CPR & AEDs are literal lifesavers! We hope you never are in the situation where you have to use this but it's good to know you'll now be prepared.
