English abbreviation for cardiac resuscitation

The abbreviation of CPR is cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

Brief introduction of cardiac resuscitation

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) refers to the method of taking emergency treatment measures to maintain cardiopulmonary function in an emergency. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation often plays a vital role in rescuing cardiac arrest and respiratory arrest.

Second, cardiopulmonary resuscitation steps

1. Check the environment and consciousness: First, we must ensure the safety of rescuers. At the scene of an emergency, we should first check the dangerous environment, confirm the safety of ourselves and others, and then immediately assess the victim's state of consciousness.

2. Call an ambulance: If the victim doesn't respond, you must call an ambulance immediately. Tell the operator where and how it is, and then give first aid or other treatment.

3. Judging breathing: check breathing immediately after eliminating the crisis. Lay the patient flat on the hard and flat ground, tilt his head backwards, press his hands in the center of the sternum, and then feel breathing and breathing.

4. Perform chest compressions: When the victim stops breathing or has difficulty breathing, immediately perform chest compressions. Cross your hands, straighten your arms, and continue to press for 40-50 times.

5. Artificial respiration: Two mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration are performed immediately after each chest compression.

6. Continue chest compressions and artificial respiration: Continue chest compressions and artificial respiration, and check them every two minutes until the ambulance arrives.

Third, the effective indicators of cardiopulmonary resuscitation

1. Carotid pulsation: When pressing is effective, you can feel carotid pulsation every time pressing is effective. If the compression pulse disappears, chest compression should be continued. If the pulse still exists after stopping pressing, the patient's heartbeat has recovered.

2. complexion (lips): when the recovery is effective, the complexion changes from cyanosis to ruddy, and if it turns gray, it means that the recovery is invalid.

3. Others: When resuscitation is effective, spontaneous breathing may occur, or the pupil changes from large to small with light reflection, even eye movements and limb convulsions.
