When pulse is beating but breathing has stopped
(Mouth-to-mouth respiration) Fig.1
(1) Tilt the victim’s head back as far as this face looks back. (A pillow may be inserted his neck.)
(2) Push his jaw upward to open his throat wide (to spread his airway).
(3) Pinch the victim’s nostrils and take a deep breath, block his mouth completely with yours and
blow into his mouth strongly. Take a deep breath again and blow into his mouth. Continue
this 10 to 15 times a minute (blocking his nostrils).
(4) Carefully watch that he has recovered his natural breathing and stop practicing artificial
respiration.
(5) If it is difficult to open the victim’s mouth, insert a rubber or vinyl tube into one of his
nostrils and blow into it blocking the other nostril and his mouth completely.
(6) When the victim recovers consciousness, he may try to stand up suddenly, but let him lie
calmly and serve him with a cup of hot coffee or tea and keep him warm and quiet. (Never
give him alcoholic drinks.)
Method of mouth-to-mouth respiration by raising head
(1) Raise the victim’s head. Support
his forehead with one of your
hand and his neck with the other
hand.
/ q
When you tilt his head
backward, the victim, in most
cases, opens his mouth to the
air. This makes mouth-to-mouth
respiration easy.
(2) Cover his mouth as widely as
possible with yours and press
your cheek against his nose
/
w
or, pinch his nostrils with your
fingers to prevent air from
leaking.

(3) Blow into his lungs. Continue
blowing into his mouth until his
breast swells. Blow into his
mouth as quickly as possible for
the first 10 times.
