Summary of Adult CPR 2 rescuer video:

Adult CPR with two rescuers is different from adult single rescuer CPR. First check for patient responsiveness, contact emergency services, and check for breathing. With two rescuers, the rescuer kneeling next to the patient performs chest compressions, while the rescuer at the patient's head does rescue breathing. After two rescue breaths are given, check for a pulse, and begin CPR if the patient has no pulse and is not breathing. Perform 30 compressions at a rate of 100 per minute and a depth of 1.5 to 2 inches in the center of the chest. Once five cycles of CPR are done, or after about 2 to 2 1/2 minutes, the rescuers should switch places so that the person doing compressions is now doing rescue breaths, and vice versa.
