Résumé

TLDRThis video provides instructions on performing CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) when someone collapses and is not breathing. It emphasizes remembering the sequence "Doctors ABC (and D)": ensure the area is safe (Danger), check for a Response by gently shaking and speaking to the person, Shout for help if no response, ensure Airway is clear by tilting the head back, check for normal Breathing, and take steps to maintain Circulation through chest compressions. If trained, you can give rescue breaths, otherwise focus solely on compressions. An optional step D is Defibrillation, using an AED (Automatic External Defibrillator) to restart the heart. Seek training for hands-on practice and share the information widely.

    The video provides a guide on CPR, emphasizing its importance in keeping people alive until emergency services arrive. It introduces the 'Doctors ABC' approach: 'D' for danger, ensuring the area is safe; 'R' for response, checking for a reaction; 'S' for shouting for help; 'E' for airway, opening it by tilting the head; 'B' for breathing, checking for normal respiration; and 'C' for circulation, performing chest compressions. The procedure for chest compressions is detailed, and the role of rescue breaths is explained for those trained. The video also briefly covers defibrillation using AEDs, noting that CPR should continue if no AED is available. It concludes by encouraging viewers to learn and share these life-saving steps.

    hello in this healthsketch
  • 00:00:03
    we want to talk to you about CPR which
  • 00:00:06
    stands for cardiopulmonary resuscitation
  • 00:00:08
    we use CPR when someone has collapsed
  • 00:00:11
    and is not breathing because it can keep
  • 00:00:14
    people alive until emergency services
  • 00:00:17
    arrive learning these simple life-saving
  • 00:00:20
    skills is as easy as ABC all you have to
  • 00:00:24
    remember is the doctors a b c d is for
  • 00:00:28
    danger
  • 00:00:28
    first look around carefully to make sure
  • 00:00:32
    the area is safe for yourself and others
  • 00:00:34
    before approaching our s for response
  • 00:00:37
    shake them gently by the shoulders and
  • 00:00:40
    ask them loudly are you alright
  • 00:00:42
    if there is no response you need to s
  • 00:00:46
    shout for help as any assistance will be
  • 00:00:49
    helpful e is for airway gently tilt the
  • 00:00:54
    head back like this to open up the
  • 00:00:56
    airway B is for breathing look listen
  • 00:01:01
    and feel for signs of normal breathing
  • 00:01:04
    look for normal chest movements listen
  • 00:01:08
    for normal breathing sounds and try to
  • 00:01:10
    feel their breath against your face do
  • 00:01:14
    this for no more than 10 seconds if
  • 00:01:16
    there is no sign of breathing or if they
  • 00:01:18
    are breathing in an unusual noisy way we
  • 00:01:21
    need to start CPR first make sure that
  • 00:01:25
    an ambulance is on its way if you have
  • 00:01:27
    someone with you ask them to make the
  • 00:01:30
    call putting the phone on speaker mode
  • 00:01:33
    is useful as the ambulance service can
  • 00:01:35
    talk you through the steps
  • 00:01:36
    C is for circulation circulation means
  • 00:01:40
    the flow of blood around the body and
  • 00:01:42
    when the heart stops pumping we need to
  • 00:01:45
    take over this rule by pushing down hard
  • 00:01:47
    and fast on the chest start by placing
  • 00:01:49
    the heel of one hand at the center of
  • 00:01:52
    the person's chest and interlock your
  • 00:01:54
    fingers like this with arms straightened
  • 00:01:58
    press down hard and fast letting the
  • 00:02:01
    chest come back up fully each time fast
  • 00:02:05
    means around two times every second and
  • 00:02:08
    hard means that the chest needs to go
  • 00:02:11
    down by about five centimeters
  • 00:02:13
    this might sound a lot but you do need
  • 00:02:15
    to push hard for it to be effective if
  • 00:02:18
    you have been trained you can give two
  • 00:02:20
    rescue breaths after every 30
  • 00:02:22
    compressions as this helps provide some
  • 00:02:24
    oxygen however if you have not been
  • 00:02:27
    trained or are not comfortable just keep
  • 00:02:29
    going with hands only continuous chest
  • 00:02:31
    compressions if someone else is with you
  • 00:02:34
    swap over if you begin to feel tired and
  • 00:02:36
    don't stop until either a health
  • 00:02:38
    professional takes over or the person is
  • 00:02:40
    definitely breathing normally sometimes
  • 00:02:43
    we can add another step D D is for
  • 00:02:46
    defibrillation which is about delivering
  • 00:02:49
    a shock to restart the heartbeat some
  • 00:02:52
    public areas and workplaces have an
  • 00:02:54
    easy-to-use defibrillator on-site called
  • 00:02:56
    an automatic external defibrillator or
  • 00:02:58
    AED automatic means that it is the
  • 00:03:02
    machine that decides what to do so you
  • 00:03:04
    can't go wrong and it even talks you
  • 00:03:07
    through the steps
  • 00:03:08
    if there is no AED available keep going
  • 00:03:11
    with CPR until the ambulance arrives
  • 00:03:13
    that's it so to recap remember doctors
  • 00:03:18
    ABC and if you have it D that's D for
  • 00:03:22
    danger R for response S shout for help
  • 00:03:27
    e for airway B for breathing C for
  • 00:03:32
    circulation and D for defibrillation in
  • 00:03:35
    this healthsketch we've shown you the
  • 00:03:37
    simple steps you can take to help
  • 00:03:39
    someone who has collapsed is not
  • 00:03:41
    breathing or not breathing normally why
  • 00:03:44
    not take a training course to practice
  • 00:03:45
    these steps share this video with
  • 00:03:48
    friends and family to make sure we all
  • 00:03:50
    know what to do
