CPR Basics
This is how you check if an adult is responsive.
What is tapping their shoulder and asking, “Are you okay?”
This device analyzes the heart and can deliver a shock if needed.
What is an AED?
This is the first step when helping someone with a moderate bleeding cut.
What is applying direct pressure?
This device is used for severe allergic reactions.
What is an EpiPen?
This condition is an abrupt loss of heart functioning.

An EpiPen should be injected in this part of the body.
What is the outer thigh?
This happens when blood flow to part of the heart is blocked.
What is a Heart attack?
You must allow this to happen between compressions for CPR to work properly.
What is full chest recoil?
The AED resets the heart by doing this.
What is briefly stopping the heart’s electrical activity with a shock?
Bleeding through a paper towel after pressure tells you this.
What is the bleeding may be moderate or severe?

What is Cardiac Arrest?
This is the first thing you should do after finding someone unresponsive and not breathing.
What is make sure the scene is safe?
Before delivering a shock with an AED, you must make sure other people are NOT doing this.
What is touching the person suffering from SCA.

What is slows and helps stop the bleeding?
When EMS arrives to the scene it is important for you to tell them this detail of information regarding the EpiPen.
What is the time the injection was given?
You arrive at a scene and a person is unresponsive and not breathing normally, but they are occasionally gasping. What should you recognize this as, and what should you do immediately?
What are agonal gasps (not normal breathing), and begin CPR immediately while someone calls 911 and gets an AED?
