Скачать или смотреть 3b: One-Rescuer BLS in Children (2025)

This is a lesson about the administration of basic life support specifically in situations involving children. It provides a step-by-step overview of what to do in one-rescuer scenario involving children. There are important adjustments which must be made when administering CPR to a child, which are highlighted here, along with important information about maintaining the situation until EMS arrives on the scene.

"If you are alone with a child in a life-threatening situation, first tap their shoulders and talk loudly to them to determine if they are responsive.

If the child does not respond and is not breathing (or is only gasping for air), then yell for help. If someone responds, send them to call 911 and get an AED (if you are not in a health care facility), or activate emergency response system and get a defibrillator (if you are in a health care facility).

Assess if they are breathing while feeling for the child’s carotid pulse (on the side of the neck) or femoral pulse (on the inner thigh in the crease between their leg and groin) for no more than 10 seconds.

If you cannot feel a pulse, or if you are unsure, begin CPR by doing 30 compressions followed by two breaths. If you can feel a pulse but the pulse rate is less than 60 beats per minute, begin CPR. This rate is too slow for a child.

After doing CPR for about two minutes, which is usually about five cycles of 30 compressions and two breaths, and if help has not arrived, call EMS while staying with the child. The ILCOR emphasizes to use speaker-equipped cell phones that are available everywhere add after now. Get an AED if you know where one is.

Use and follow the prompts on the AED or the defibrillator while continuing CPR until EMS arrives or until the child's condition normalizes."
