b) If the injured or ill person is breathing, place him/her in the recovery
position and wait for the arrival of the emergency services.
• Position the injured or ill person on his/her side, maintain a clear and
open airway by pushing the head backward while positioning their
mouth downward. To maintain proper blood circulation, roll him/her
gently to position them in the recovery position in the opposite
direction every 30 minutes.
7. Give 2 rescue breaths (omissible)
a) If opening the airway does not cause the injured or ill person to begin
to breathe normally, give rescue breaths.
b) If there is a fear of infection because the injured or ill person has an
intraoral injury, you are hesitant about giving mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation, or getting and preparing the mouthpiece for rescue
breathing takes too long, omit rescue breathing and perform chest
compressions.
c) When performing rescue breathing, it is recommended to use a
mouthpiece for rescue breathing and other protective devices to
prevent infections.
d) While maintaining an open airway, pinch the person's nose shut with
your thumb and forefinger of the hand used to push down the
forehead.
e) Open your mouth widely to completely cover the mouth of the injured or ill person so that no air
will escape. Give rescue breathing twice in about 1 second and check if the chest rises.
8. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) (combination of chest compressions and
rescue breaths)
a) Chest compressions
1) Position of chest compressions
• Position the heel of one hand in the center of the chest, approximately between the nipples,
and place your other hand on top of the one that is in position.
Roll gently in the opposite
direction every 30 minutes.
