Stopping for breaths? or not?

[DBT343Bombero]

@roofskis There has been no change in the recommendation for a

compression-to-ventilation ratio of 30:2 for single rescuers of

adults, children, and infants. The

2010 AHA Guidelines for CPR and ECC continue to recommend

that rescue breaths be given in approximately 1 second. Excessive ventilation should be avoided. Hands-Only (compression-only) CPR is easier for an

untrained rescuer to perform and can be more readily guided

by dispatchers over the telephone.

Ok this may be a stupid question but when giving breaths, am I inhaling then only exhaling into the person or inhaling

[Jkarg18]

@WatchmenAtom U just exhae....cause the diafragm do the rest of the work making the victim to exhale....pressure compensation.

@WatchmenAtom

You inhale outside and then exhale into the patient.

If you do not inhale, the quantity of your exhaled air will not be sufficient enough for rescue as the air should cause chest to expand going beyond the bronchial tree into the alveoli of lungs
