The importance of cardiopulmonary resuscitation in infants

Primary life support is as important as advanced life support, and both are indispensable. Because the moment when heartbeat and respiratory arrest occur is the most dangerous and critical moment, and time is life, the success of rescue depends on the time when primary life support and advanced life support begin. The earlier the rescue start time, the higher the rescue success rate. It needs to be clear here that rescue does not simply refer to the rescue measures taken by patients in the hospital by medical staff, but includes the initial and most basic cardiopulmonary resuscitation performed by non-medical staff at the scene of the patient. Specifically, on-site cardiopulmonary resuscitation includes three parts: unobstructed airway, mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration, and chest heart compression. It is the most basic life support for injured and sick people in the most important stage of saving lives, without any equipment. Mastery for all.
