Chapter 3: C-A-B: Compressions, Airway, Breathing
CPR follows this order:
C – Compressions
A – Airway
B – Breathing
We begin with compressions to keep blood moving.
The standard cycle for one rescuer is:
30 compressions followed by 2 breaths (30:2).
If you are not trained in rescue breaths, or do not feel comfortable giving them, perform Hands-Only CPR:
- Call 9-1-1
- Push hard and fast in the center of the chest
- Do not stop
Hands-Only CPR is appropriate for sudden adult collapse. Breaths are especially important for children, infants, drowning victims, choking, or drug overdoses.
