What are the 5 steps in the Pediatric BLS algorithm in a two rescuer situation?

BLS Pediatric Cardiac Arrest Algorithm – Multi Rescuer

  1. Verify scene safety. If you encounter a potential cardiac arrest victim, first make sure the scene is safe for both the rescuers and the victim.
  2. Check responsiveness. Get help.
  3. Assess for breathing and pulse.
  4. Begin CPR.
  5. Attempt defibrillation with the AED.

What is CPR ratio for child?

Two-person CPR ratio for the child and infant will be 15 compressions to 2 breaths.

How many breaths should a BLS child have?

Provide rescue breathing, 1 breath every 2-3 seconds, or about 20-30 breaths/min. Assess pulse rate for no more than 10 seconds. Continue rescue breathing; check pulse about every 2 minutes. If no pulse, start CPR.

What are the four steps in pediatric basic life support?

The recommended sequence of CPR has previously been known by the initials “ABC”: Airway, Breathing/ventilation, and Chest compressions (or Circulation). The 2010 AHA Guidelines for CPR and ECC recommend a CAB sequence (chest compressions, airway, breathing/ventilations).

What is the recommended BLS sequence according to the 2020 Ilcor guidelines?

The ILCOR recommends giving one breath every two to three seconds, which translates to 20 to 30 breaths per minute. In the past, the recommendation was to administer rescue breaths at a rate of one breath every three to five seconds, which would have translated to only 12 to 20 breaths per minute.

What does DRS ABCD stand for?

DRSABCD stands for Danger, Response, Send, Airway, Breathing, CPR, Defibrillation.

What are the correct steps to take in the A child BLS sequence for the single rescuer?

BLS Pediatric Cardiac Arrest Algorithm – Single Rescuer

  1. Verify scene safety.
  2. Check responsiveness.
  3. Assess for breathing and pulse.
  4. Witnessed sudden collapse?
  5. Begin CPR.
  6. Activate emergency response and retrieve AED.
