Respected Principal Sir, Esteemed Professors, and Dear Students,
Good morning.
Today, I want to talk about CPR and how to do it. CPR stands for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation. It is a method used to help someone whose heart has stopped beating or who is not breathing.
Here’s how you perform CPR:
1. Check the Person: Gently shake the person and ask, “Are you okay?” If there is no answer, call for emergency help right away.
2. Check Breathing: Look and listen for breathing. If the person is not breathing, start CPR.
3. Chest Compressions:
- Place your hands, one on top of the other, in the middle of the chest.
- Press down hard and fast, about 100 to 120 times per minute.
- Let the chest rise fully between compressions.
4. Rescue Breaths (if you are trained):
- After 30 compressions, give 2 breaths.
- Tilt the person’s head back a little, pinch their nose, and cover their mouth with yours.
- Give a breath that lasts about 1 second. Watch for the chest to rise. Repeat twice.
5. Keep Going: Continue with chest compressions and rescue breaths until help arrives or the person starts breathing again.
Stay calm and act quickly. If you can’t do rescue breaths, just focus on chest compressions. They are very helpful too.
Learning CPR is important. It’s a simple skill that can save lives.
Thank you.
