Introduction to Basic Life Support

In this video, Cruz Roja (Red Cross) demonstrates the sequence of actions for basic life support in emergency situations where breathing or blood circulation may stop. It is important to act immediately and follow the protocol to ensure the person's vital functions continue.

Sequence of Actions for Basic Life Support

• Assess the safety of the scene before providing assistance. Ensure it is not dangerous for yourself, the victim, or others.

• Check the victim's level of consciousness by stimulating them and asking questions about what happened.

• Look for any injuries that could worsen their condition.

• If necessary, call emergency services (112) for help.

• If the person is unconscious and not responding, open their airway to check if they are breathing.

• Place them on a flat surface with their body straight and arms extended.

• Kneel beside their shoulders, support their head from the forehead, and lift their chin with two fingers.

• Remove any visible objects obstructing the airway.

• Check if their chest rises and listen for breath sounds for no more than 10 seconds.

Positioning an Unconscious Person in Recovery Position

• If the person is breathing, place them in a recovery position to prevent choking or aspiration.

• Kneel beside them and remove any large objects from their pockets.

• Straighten their legs and bend one arm at a right angle with palm facing up.

• Place your other hand on their opposite cheek while maintaining head tilt with your supporting hand.

• Hold onto their far knee and lift it until their foot touches the ground while keeping both legs together.

• Rotate their body towards you while flexing one leg at a right angle to prevent rolling.

CPR Technique for Unconscious Non-Breathing Victims

• If there is no breathing, call emergency services (112) or ask someone else to do so.

• Start cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) by performing chest compressions.

• Place the heel of one hand in the center of the victim's chest and place your other hand on top.

• Interlock your fingers and keep your arms straight, aligning your shoulders directly above the victim's chest.

• Compress the sternum to a depth of 3.5 to 5 centimeters at a rate of about 100 compressions per minute.

• After every 30 compressions, provide two rescue breaths.

• Open the airway by tilting their head back with one hand supporting their forehead.

• Pinch their nose closed with that same hand and create a seal over their mouth with your lips.

• Give a breath lasting about one second while watching for chest rise.

• Continue cycles of 30 compressions followed by two rescue breaths until medical help arrives or spontaneous breathing resumes.

Variations for CPR in Infants and Children

• For infants and children, start CPR with five initial rescue breaths before beginning chest compressions if there is no response.

• If alone, perform one minute of CPR before calling for help.

Timestamps are approximate and may vary slightly.
