00:00:03,100 --> 00:00:09,090
Now let's cover one rescuer, child CPR for
the healthcare provider. Our scene is safe,

2
00:00:09,090 --> 00:00:13,740
our gloves are on and our rescue mask with
the one-way valve is available. I'm gonna

3
00:00:13,740 --> 00:00:18,369
call out to the child, "are you all right?
Can you hear me?" They don't respond. I now

4
00:00:18,369 --> 00:00:22,960
place one hand on their forehead as I tap
on their collarbone. "Are you OK? Can you

5
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:28,539
hear me?" The child still does not respond.
It's at this time that I activate EMS, call

6
00:00:28,539 --> 00:00:34,050
911 or call a code. If I have a bystander
I'll send them to go call 911 and then have

7
00:00:34,050 --> 00:00:39,519
them come back with an AID if they have one
available. After this, I need to assess this

8
00:00:39,519 --> 00:00:45,699
child for normal breathing and check their
carotid pulse. I check it for no more than

9
00:00:45,699 --> 00:00:51,629
10 seconds; the child does not breathing and
they do not have a pulse. At this time I'm

10
00:00:51,629 --> 00:00:57,690
gonna go right in the CPR. Located between
their breasts on the sternum I'm now gonna

11
00:00:57,690 --> 00:01:03,639
start my 30 compressions, compressing the
chest 1/3 of the depth of their chest at a

12
00:01:03,639 --> 00:01:12,070
rate between 100 and 120 times per minute.
1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and 5 and 6 and 7 and

13
00:01:12,070 --> 00:01:21,380
8 and 9 and 10, 11 and 12, 13, 14, 15, 16,
17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27,

14
00:01:21,380 --> 00:01:27,030
28, 29, 30. I'm gonna grab my rescue mask,
head tilt chin left if it's not already there

15
00:01:27,030 --> 00:01:36,590
and I'm gonna give two rescue breaths. First
one goes in, second one goes in, back onto

16
00:01:36,590 --> 00:01:43,119
the 30 compressions. And I'm gonna continue
this 30 compressions to 2 rescue breaths until

17
00:01:43,119 --> 00:01:50,990
the patient revives, until the AID arrives
or until EMS or help comes in and can take

18
00:01:50,990 --> 00:01:51,280
over.

Child CPR Training Summary

If a child does not respond and is not breathing normally, call 911. Check for a pulse for at most 10 seconds. If the child does not have a carotid pulse, begin CPR. Perform chest compressions using one hand in the center of the chest for thirty compressions. These compressions should be performed at a depth of at least 1/3 the depth of the chest. Give two breaths, followed by 30 compressions, and repeat until the child revives, an AED is available, or advanced life support arrives.
