    The document provides information about basic life support techniques. It discusses managing airway obstructions through various head tilt and jaw thrust methods. It also covers breathing techniques like mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Foreign body airway obstructions are addressed, along with techniques like abdominal thrusts and chest thrusts to relieve obstructions in adults, children, infants, pregnant women and obese patients. The document also summarizes cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) steps, including chest compressions and artificial ventilation to circulate blood and prevent biological death when the heart stops.

     To equip the participants
    with basic knowledge,
    skills and attitude to
    perform with confidence
    BASIC LIFE SUPPORT
    techniques to save lives.
    B  Generally refers to the type
    of care that first –responders,
    healthcare providers and public
    safety professionals provide to

    L
    anyone who is experiencing cardiac
    arrest, respiratory distress or an
    obstructed airway. It requires
    knowledge and skills in
    cardiopulmonary resuscitation
    (CPR), using automated external

    S defibrillators (AED) and reliving


    airways obstruction in patients of
    every age.
    MANAGEMENT AND TECHNIQUES

    The method of
    choice for opening
    the airway. It is used
    in most cases unless
    head or neck injury is
    suspected in the
    patient.
    Jaw Thrust

    It is a reserved
    for patients who
    present with head
    or neck injuries.

    Mouth-T
    Recovery Position

    this position uses gravity to


    keep the airway clear, allowing
    the fluids of the mouth instead
    of into the airway. This position
    should be used on an
    unresponsive, uninjured
    patient who is breathing
    adequately. Keep the patient in
    that position until
    transportation arrives.

    Note: Do not move the patient into recovery position if


    you suspect trauma or C-spine injury.

    a partial or
    complete blockage
    of the breathing
    tubes to the lungs
    due to foreign
    body.
    Heimlich Maneuver
     also known as abdominal thrusts
    method recommended for reliving
    foreign body airways
    obstruction(FBAO)
    Abdominal Thrusts- Responsive
    Adult/Children( Patient Standing or Setting)

     1. Get in Position- stand behind the victim; wrap your arms around
    the victim’s waist, keeping your elbows away from the patient’s
    ribs.
     2. Position your hands- make a fist with one hand; place the thumb
    side of the fist against the patient’s abdomen, slightly above the
    navel and below the xiphoid process.
     3. Perform an Abdominal Thrust- grasp the fist with other and press
    the fist into the patient’s abdomen with a quick upward thrust.
     4. Repeat thrust- until the object is expelled from the airway or the
    patient becomes unconscious. Each new thrust should be separate
    and distinct movement.
    Abdominal Thrusts- Unresponsive
    Adult/Children( Patient Lying Down)
     1. Get in Position- in Supine
     2. Attempt to Ventilate. If unsuccessful, reposition the patient’s head and try again.
    If still unsuccessful, go to the next step.
     3. Get in Position. Kneel astride the victim’s thighs and heel of one hand against
    the patient’s abdomen, midline, slightly aboved the navel and below the xiphoid
    process. Place the second Hand directly on top of the first.
     4. Perform up to 5 abdominal thrusts. Press into the abdomen with a quake
    upward thrust.
     5. Perform finger sweep. In Children, used technique only if you are able to see
    the foreign object. Used the tongue-jaw lift to open the patient’s mouth. Insert the
    index finger of the other hand along the side of the cheek into the throat, using a
    hooking action to dislodge the foreign body and lift it out.
     6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 until patient’s airway is open.
    Chest Thrusts- Pregnant/ Obese Responsive
    Adult/Children( Patient Standing or Setting)

    1. Get in Position- stand behind the patient, with


    your arms directly under the patient’s armpit, and
    encircle the patients chest.
    2. Position or hands- Place the thumb-side of your fist
    along the patient’s sternum, avoiding the xiphoid
    process and margins of the rib cage.
    3. Perform a chest thrust- grab your fist with the other
    hand and perform backward thrust until the object
    is expelled from the airway or the patient becomes
    unconscious. Repeat this steps until patient airway
    is opened.

    Note: Chest thrust are to be used only with patient in late stages of pregnancy or with the
    markedly obese, when abdominal thrust cannot be applied effectively.
    Chest Thrusts- Pregnant/ Obese Unresponsive
    Adult( Patient Lying Down)

     1. Get in Position- in Supine


     2. Attempt to Ventilate. If unsuccessful, reposition the patient’s head and try again.
    If still unsuccessful, go to the next step.
     3. Get in Position. Kneel astride the victim’s thighs and heel of one hand against
    the patient’s abdomen, midline, slightly aboved the navel and below the xiphoid
    process. Place the second Hand directly on top of the first.
     4. Perform up to 5 chest thrusts. Each thrust must be a distinct downward motion.
     5. Perform finger sweep. Used the tongue-jaw lift to open the patient’s mouth.
    Insert the index finger of the other hand along the side of the cheek into the throat,
    using a hooking action to dislodge the foreign body and lift it out.
     6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 until patient’s airway is open.
    MANAGING FBAO IN INFANTS
     Removing FBAO in Conscious Infants

    1. Verify complete airway Obstruction- Serious breathing


    difficulty, ineffective cough, no strong cry.
    2. Position on the Infant- Straddle the infant face-down over
    one of your fore-arms, head lower than body. Support the
    infant’s head by holding the jaw with your hand.
    3. Deliver 5 back blows- Used the heel of your hand between
    the shoulder blades. If the foreign object does not expelled,
    position the infant face-up on your arm, head lower than the
    body.
    4. Deliver 5 chest thrust- Position your middle and ring
    fingers in the middle of the infant’s sternum, just below the
    imaginary line between the infant’s nipples. Use a quick
    downward motion. The head of the infant should be lower
    than the chest while performing chest thrust.
    5. Repeat steps 2 to 5 until effective, or until infant becomes
    conscious.
    MANAGING FBAO IN
    INFANTS
    Removing FBAO in Unconscious Infants

    1. Establish unresponsiveness.
    2. Open airway and ventilate. If still obstructed,
    REPOSITION the inant’s head and ventilate again.
    3. Give up to 5 back blows and five chest thrust.
    4. Perform a tongue-Jaw lift. If you can see the foreign
    object, use a finger sweep to remove it.
    5. Repeat steps 2-4 until effective.
    Remember
    Cardiopulmonary
    C Resuscitation
    P
    R
    Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation

     Involves a combination of chest


    compression and artificial ventilations
    designed to revive a person and
    prevent biological death by
    mechanically keeping a person’s heart
    and lungs working

    CPR must begin as soon as possible.


    STEPS BEFORE STARTING
    CPR;
    Call 911
    Chest compressions consist of rhythmic,
    repeated pressure over the lower half of the
    sternum. When combined with artificial
    ventilation, it provides enough blood
    circulation
    When not begin CPR?

    1.Obvious mortal wounds


    2. Rigor Mortis
    3. Decomposition
    4. Dependent lividity
    WHEN TO STOP CPR?
    S- spontaneous signs of circulation are restored
    T- turned over the medical services or properly trained
    personnel
    O- operator is already exhausted
    P- physician assume responsibility ( declares death)
    S- scene become unsafe
    S- signed waiver to stop CPR
    SIGN OF SUCCESSFUL CPR
    Have feel for a pulse during compression
    The chest should rise and fall with each
    ventilation
    The pupils may begin to react normally
    Patient’s skin color may improve
    Patient may attempt to move and try to swallow
    Heartbeat may return
