CPR

Hands-Only CPR
  1. Send someone to Call OPS, 911 from campus phone or 309-298-1949 from cell phone, and to bring an AED. If alone Call 911 yourself and get an AED if available nearby.
  2. Expose chest. Pump hard and fast in the center of the chest. Let chest fully rise after each compression.
  3. Continue until:
    • An AED is brought to the scene and is ready to use.
    • Professional help or another person arrives and takes over.
Conventional CPR
  1. Check for responsiveness by tapping the victim on the shoulder and shouting, "Are you OK?" Note if the victim is not breathing or not breathing normally (gasping).
  2. Send someone to Call OPS at 309-298-1949, and to bring an AED. If alone, Call OPS firstand retrieve an AED if nearby.
  3. Expose the chest. Put the heel of your hand on the breastbone, second hand on top of the first and interlock the fingers in the center of the chest for chest compressions.
  4. Give 30 chest compressions hard and fast at least 2 inches deep at a rate of at least 100 per minute. Count aloud for a steady rate: "1, 2, 3....."
  5. Open the airway by tilting the head back and lifting the chin.
  6. Give 2 breaths over 1 second each to produce visible chest rise.
  7. Continue cycles of 30 compressions and 2 breaths. If the victim may have been choking, look inside the mouth when opening it to give breaths and remove any objects with your fingers.
  8. Continue CPR until:
    • The victim wakes up.
    • An AED is brought to the scene and is ready to use.
    • Professional help or another CPR trained person arrives and takes over.
  9. When an AED arrives, start the AED sequence.
  10. If the victim is breathing normally but is unresponsive, put him or her in a recovery position and monitor breathing.
Using an AED
  • Give CPR until an AED (automated external defibrillator) is brought to the scene and is ready to use. When the AED is ready, follow the steps below.
  • If you arrive with an AED at a victim who is not breathing or not breathing normally (gasping), use the AED immediately before starting CPR.
  • For a infant or child under age 8, use a unit with pediatric pads if available, applied as directed by the unit. If unavailable use adult pads with one on the chest and one on the back with no overlapping.
  1. Place the unit by the victim's shoulder and turn it on.
  2. Expose the victim's chest and quickly dry or shave the pad placement area if necessary.
  3. Apply pads to the victim's chest, following the diagram on the pads. If needed, plug the cables into the unit.
  4. Stand clear during rhythm analysis.
  5. Follow prompts from the AED unit to take 1 of 3 actions: (1) press the shock button, (2) stay clear while the AED automatically delivers a shock or, (3) do not shock but immediately give CPR with remaining in place, starting with chest compressions.
  6. Stand clear when AED prompts to analyze the rhythm again after 5 cycles of CPR (about 2 minutes)
  7. Continue steps 5 and 6 until the victim wakes up or professional rescuers arrive and take over.
  8. If the victim is breathing normally but is unresponsive, put the victim in the recover position (with pads remaining in place) and continue to monitor the breathing.
Choking - Responsive Adult or Child
  1. If the victim is coughing forcefully, encourage continued coughing to clear object. If not coughing, ask the victim if he or she is choking. A person who cannot cough, speak or breath is choking and needs help immediately. Have someone Call OPS at 309-298-1949 or call 911.
  2. Ask if you can help. Tell the victim you will use abdominal thrusts (the Heimlich maneuver).

  6. Grasp your fist with you other hand and thrust inward and upward into the victim's abdomen with quick jerks. Continue abdominal thrusts until the victim expels the object or becomes unresponsive.
  7. If the victim becomes unresponsive, lower the person to the ground, expose the chest and start CPR by pumping the chest 30 times hard and fast. Look inside the mouth when opening the airways to give breaths and remove any object. Do not do a blind finger sweep.
  8. For a responsive pregnant victim or any victim you cannot get your arms around or cannot effectively give abdominal thrust to, give chest thrust instead of abdominal thrust. Avoid squeezing the ribs with your arms.

Alcohol Overdose
