I had taken a BLS course in late 2013 where an EMT from Henrietta, NY came over to my parents' house where I was living with all the training essentials (CPR mannequins for adult/child/infant, AED training unit).
1:01 Mr Drake: you don't do CPR At school you're going to lose fun Friday if you continue to do CPR Jacob: no I won't Mr Drake: yes you will if you continue to do CPR
Christian marquez It might leave burn marks, but if you fuss about removing it, you'll waste precious time not saving the patient. As per the practice in my country, we are taught to push it away from the pads for necklaces.
Good clear direction, you don't need to bare the chest until the AED arrives on scene or if a serious wound. To bad this manikin doesn't show ventilations. If advised to shock patient tell people to clear the patient then shock the patient Even better to say loudly "I'm clear, your clear, everybody stand clear" then deliver shock.
The benefit of exposing the chest at the beginning is not only to prepare the patient for the AED, but to also assist with proper landmarking (heel of the hand between the nipples or the centre of the chest). you will note that the rescuer called for a stand clear at 2:35 and again at 2:48.
Place your hand at arm pit level and your land mark is fine. You don't waste time and there is no uncomfortableness to rescuers or family/bystanders. You will notice I didn't say there was no clear, just three warnings is better than one.
wcresponder The armpit landmark technique was used to use on children prior to the 2005 ILCOR revision (on adults we used the rib sweep/sternal notch land marking technique to ensure we were not on the xyphiod process). An armpit sweep for an adult does not always land the rescuer in the right position on the chest (often to high) - the 'centre of the chest' between the nipples works for all victim sizes.
LifesavingSociety BCY. Saggy chests leave low land marks. There is no perfect method. Lower half of the chest which the arm pit give us as position if your jamming your hand up the arm pit you don't know what your doing.
causemore dzvene The Lifesaving Society removed the pulse check from all lay rescuer first aid (to include lifesaving and lifeguarding) courses as per the 2010 ILCOR/AHA Resuscitation Guidelines.
the logic is that if the patient isn’t breathing, you already know they aren’t circulating oxygen and therefore, don’t have a sufficient rhythm anyway so it just saves that extra few seconds
If the patient isn't breathing, for the layperson it can safely be assumed there is no pulse; only paramedics and other advanced responders are required to check for pulse, as the pulse may be irregular (still requiring CPR & AED use) which would confuse a layperson, or the layperson may take the pulse wrong (for example, if you use your thumb rather than two fingers, you might actually be recording your own pulse). Preserving life is more important than the possibility of a broken sternum.
Thank you. I've been searching for a realistic guide. You delivered.
Folks make sure that when you provide Rescue Breaths to pause and look at the chest to ensure that the breath is going in.
In my BLS training class that was the main thing I was told..
Great video on CPR training
Vital information given clearly and in practice.
Liked and subbed! :)

what's the protocol if there wearing jewelry,i heard once the aed delivers a shock it could leave burn marks where the jewelry was.

That CPR Traininer Does Look Like Mrs Fox

these actars do have lungs (a plastic bag) that you can purchase so they inflate
Nice video
She didnot check the pulse,is this the right way?

I’m concerned that the cpr looks like it’s killing that dummies even more...
No carotid pulse check, no check for respirations? What! Oops!
zalkona
She checked for pulse at the same time she checked for shallow breathes
What is the meaning of the CPR?
Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation, the goal is to keep blood flowing to the brain and other organs until the heart can be restarted
CPR Is Very Serious And I Do Know CPR
cool
She never checked for a pulse. That's a failure in any class i've ever taken.
Mason D Pulse checks for lay rescuers were removed from the program with the 2005 ILCOR resuscitation updates.
Pretty sure AED checks for you.
YOU IN THE BLACK SHIRT !! wow the first aider is a bully
It is a dreaded physical control😮😮
Planez ,liftz and carz lol why
..
If he had a pulse, you just needlessly broke his sternum.

G K very well explained and the good samaritan act protects the lifesaver if they did beak the sternum anyway
