CPR training session

1. CPR – Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Life-Saving Emergency Procedure Presented by: Prof. Dr. Ramar G. Apex College of Nursing, Varanasi

2. Learning Objectives Define CPR. Identify the indications for CPR. Explain the steps of Basic Life Support (BLS). Demonstrate correct CPR technique for adults, children and infants. Understand the use of AED (Automated External Defibrillator).

3. Introduction CPR = Cardio (Heart) + Pulmonary (Lungs) + Resuscitation (Revive). Emergency procedure to maintain blood circulation and oxygen supply when the heart stops.

4. Importance of CPR Increases chance of survival after cardiac arrest. Brain damage can occur within 4–6 minutes of oxygen deprivation. Immediate CPR can double or triple survival chances.

5. Chain of Survival (AHA 2020) Early recognition and activation of emergency response system (Calling 108/112). Early CPR with high-quality compressions. Rapid defibrillation (AED). Advanced life support. Post-cardiac arrest care.

6. Types of CPR BLS – Basic Life Support: For health workers, lay persons. ACLS – Advanced Cardiac Life Support: For trained professionals. Pediatric & Neonatal Resuscitation: Modified for infants and children.

7. Basic Life Support (BLS) – Adult Sequence Check Response – Tap and shout. Call for Help / Activate EMS. Check Breathing and Pulse. Start Chest Compressions (30 compressions + 2 breaths). Use AED as soon as available.

8. Chest Compression Technique Hand position: Center of chest (lower half of sternum). Depth: 5–6 cm (2 inches). Rate: 100–120 compressions/min. Allow full chest recoil. Minimize interruptions (< 10 seconds).

9. Infant and Child CPR Differences Infant (<1 yr): 2 fingers, depth 4 cm (1.5 in), ratio 30:2 (single rescuer) / 15:2 (two rescuers) Child (1–8 yrs): 1 hand, depth 5 cm (2 in), same ratios as above.

10. Using an AED Turn on the device and follow voice prompts. Attach pads to bare chest. Ensure no one touches the patient during analysis or shock. Resume CPR immediately after shock.

11. Rescue Breathing Head-tilt / chin-lift method. Give 2 breaths (each 1 second long). Watch for chest rise. Avoid over-ventilation.

12. Common Mistakes Inadequate depth of compressions. Wrong hand position. Excessive ventilation. Delayed activation of EMS.

13. Post-Resuscitation Care Maintain airway and oxygenation. Monitor vitals and consciousness. Shift to ICU for advanced care.

14. Summary Early CPR saves lives. Follow C–A–B sequence. Maintain high-quality compressions. Use AED promptly.
