"Cardiac arrest is often preceded by respiratory distress and arrest. It is vital to know this so that you can save the individual by preventing potential cardiac arrest.

If any individual has a pulse but is not breathing, immediately open the airway using head-tilt/chin-lift maneuver and begin rescue breathing.

Adults should receive a breath every 6 seconds (10 to 12 breaths per minute) while children should receive a breath every 2-3 seconds (20 to 30 breaths per minute)

Begin CPR if the pulse slowed down or stopped.

Review the Rescue Breathing table in your manual for more detailed information."
