🗑
show Do not press deeply into the soft tissue under the chin b/c this may obstruct the airway, do not use thumb to lift chin, do not close victim's mouth completely (unless using mouth-to-nose breathing)  
🗑
show 17%; 4% This is enough oxygen to supply the victim's needs  
🗑
show 1 second long breaths  
🗑
show stomach. This can cause gastric inflation. This may result in vomiting, aspirations, or pneumonia. To prevent Gastric inflation: take 1 second to deliver each breath, and deliver enough air to make the victim's chest rise  
🗑
show 15 compressions to 2 breaths  
🗑
show 4. If no adequate breathing, give 2 breaths. 5. Check the victim's pulse (5-10 seconds) 6. If you do not definitely feel a pulse, perform 5 cycles of compressions and ventilations (30:2 ratio)  
🗑
show Give 1 breath every 5-6 seconds and recheck their pulse every 2 minutes  
🗑
Which pulse should be used to monitor an adult?   show
🗑
show 10 seconds  
🗑
show puberty. Signs of puberty for females: breast development; in males: underarm, chest and facial hair
