ARTIFICIAL RESUSCITATION

The first five minutes are the most crucial, but keep going for up to an hour while you wait for emergency services. This can be exhausting, so take turns if there are more of you.

“THE KISS OF LIFE”

Lay the patient on their back.

Tilt the head back.

Hold jaw open and nostrils closed.

Check that airway is clear with a finger.

Place mouth over patient’s mouth and blow firmly. It takes more effort than you might expect to inflate someone else’s chest.

Watch for the chest to rise, and take your mouth away. Repeat this five or six times in succession. After that, get a rhythm going of one breath every five seconds. After ten or twelve, begin cardiac compression.

With a baby, put your mouth over the nose and mouth and use short gentle breaths twenty times a minute. A baby’s lungs can be damaged by too forceful treatment.

With an animal, such as a dog, hold the mouth closed with both hands and blow into the nose to inflate the chest. Whether you do this will of course depend on how much you love the dog. Use a strong mouthwash afterward.
