Emergency First ResponseHello and a Happy New Year to all our wonderful Emergency First Responders. You may or may not be aware that very recently the Australian (and European for that matter) Resuscitation Councils have produced new guidelines to SIMPLIFY yet further Basic Life Support (CPR) procedures based on the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation’s (ILCOR) findings. I have put together the attached for your information. Very simple – If in doubt call EMS first, give 2 breaths (5 if victim has been immersed in water) – each breath lasting 1 second. Commence CPR, compression rates of 30 to 2 breaths (almost 2 compressions a second!) and get the AED on them ASAP and follow prompts. Continue CPR until professional help arrives. The flow chart should help. Any questions, then please give me a call. Happy diving. |
