CPR is a technique of basic
life support for oxygenating
the brain and heart until
appropriate, definitive medical
treatment can restore normal
heart and ventilatory action.
The heart is
a muscular organ in
humans and other
animals, which pumps
blood through the blood
vessels of the
circulatory system.
When a person's heart stops beating, they are in cardiac arrest. During cardiac
arrest, the heart cannot pump blood to the rest of the body, including the brain
and lungs. Death can happen in minutes without treatment. CPR uses chest
compressions to mimic how the heart pumps.
Ventricular fibrillation (VF)
Ventricular tachycardia (VT)
Asystole
Pulse less electrical activity
• To maintain Blood circulation
by external cardiac massages
(C).
• To maintain an open and clear
airway (A).
• To maintain breathing
by external ventilation
(B).
• To save life of the Patient.
• To provide basic life support till
medical and advanced life
support arrives.
 To restore effective circulation
and ventilation.
 To prevent irreversible cerebral
damage due to anoxia. When
the heart fails to maintain the
cerebral circulation for
approximately four minutes the
brain may suffer irreversible
damage.

Chest Compression
• Place the heel of one hand in the
centre of the chest
• Place other hand on top
• Interlock fingers
• Compress the chest
– Rate 100 min
– Depth 4-5 cm (1.5 to 2 inch)
– Equal compression :
relaxation
• When possible change
CPR operator every 2
min

• Pinch the nose
• Take a normal breath
• Place lips over mouth
• Blow until the chest
rises
• Take about 1 second
• Allow chest to fall
• Repeat
CONTINUE CPR

Adrenaline
• Adrenaline (epinephrine) is the main drug used during
resuscitation from cardiac arrest.
Atropine
• Atropine as a single dose of 3mg is sufficient to block vagal tone
completely and should be used once in cases of asystole. It is also
indicated for symptomatic bradycardia in a dose of 0.5mg - 1mg.
Amiodarone
• It is an antiarrhythmic drug.
