When CPR on a person If done, how deep will the pressure be on the chest? Correct Answer 2 inch

Explanation:-

  • CPR is emergency care requires to restore the vital function of the body in life-threatening conditions.
  • Press (compress) the chest straight down at least 2 inches (5 cm) but no more than 2.4 inches (6 cm).

Steps:-

  • A-Airway
  • B-Breathing
  • C-C circulation
  • D-Defibrillation

A.Airway:-

  • Airway maintenance is the first and most important step of CPR. It should be established as early as possible.
  • This step involves removal of any obstruction in the mouth or throat and opening of the airway by using a head till, chin-lift maneuver.
  • Abdominal thrust or Heimlich maneuver is used to relieve the obstruction.

B.Breathing:-

  • Providing artificial breathing is the second step of CPR. If the patient is in a hospital endotracheal intubation is done to maintain ventilation.

C.Circulation:-

  • Circulation is the third step of CPR, which involves improving cardiac circulation by chest compression. The depth of compression is 2 inch and the compression to ventilation ratio is 30:2

D-Defibrillation:-

  • Defibrillation revives cardiac arrest by sending an electric current through the heart muscle cells, momentarily stopping electrical current and allowing normal heart rate to resume.
