What is a Do not resuscitate order?
is a part of advanced medical directives.expanding the notion of patient autonomy.It instructs medical personnel not to perform life-saving cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) or other procedures to restart the heart or breathing once they have ceased
Who can perform CPR when needed?
Anyone who is properly trained or not properly trained for cardiopulmonary resuscitation can perform CPR when necessary. CPR is utilized in a life-and-death situation.
What is the recommended sequence of initial resuscitation efforts within the BLS Survey?
The recommended sequence of initial resuscitation efforts within the Basic Life Support (BLS) Survey is to ensure scene safety, check for responsiveness, activate emergency medical services (EMS), and perform chest compressions if the victim is unresponsive and not breathing normally. This sequence helps to prioritize actions that can maximize the chances of survival for the victim.

What will you do to prevent performing CPR on victim that has only fainted?
Check to see if they have a pulse, or are breathing. If they have both, no CPR is needed. If they have a pulse but aren't breathing, you can perform rescue breathing only without chest compressions. If they do not have a pulse and aren't breathing, you perform rescue breathing and chest compressions.
