"If the scene is safe, approach the victim and assess their responsiveness. Send the other person to activate the emergency response system and get an AED. Assess breathing and check the brachial pulse. If the victim is not breathing or only gasping and has no pulse, begin CPR starting with compressions. Perform 30 compressions at a rate of 100120 compressions per minute at a depth of at least ⅓ the chest. For infants, this is about 1 and a half inches. Open the airway and deliver 2 breaths, each lasting one second, and watch for chest rise. Resume compressions. When the AED is brought to scene, the second rescuer should begin by turning the device on. Remove any clothing from the victim and apply the AED pads one on the front of the infant’s chest and one on their back, while the other rescuer continues performing CPR. Plug in the connector and clear the victim while the AED analyzes the rhythm. If a shock is advised, clear the victim again before delivering the shock. Once the AED has charged, hit the shock button. After delivering the shock, resume CPR beginning with 15 chest compressions using the encircling hand technique. After the compressions, the second rescuer opens the airway and delivers two breaths. Continue CPR at this ratio of 15 compressions to 2 breaths until the AED prompts you to stop or further help arrives. The rescuers should switch roles every 2 minutes."
