Airway of CPR ( Dixie R. Galvez)16085E Lancashire Dr Loxahatchee Florida 33470 (Dixiergalvez@gmail.com)

 

1.) Airway = Concerns may be caused by various illnesses, but far more commonly an airway may be obstructed, or blocked, by a foreign object or by the child´s tongue. The first result of this obstruction will be choking. If the obstruction is not removed, It will keep the child from being able to breathe. Typical foreign objects that can be block a child´s airway include food, toys, balloons, or broken parts of objects that are being chewed or simply being held in the child´s mouth.


2.) Breathing = Concerns typically result when the foreign object is not removed from the child´s airway. Of course, a conscious child who cannot breathed normally will be extremely  frightened.

Your first reactions will be to respond to the child´s fear. But as you begin to recognize what is happening, if the child is unable to breathe, You must respond to the condition that is preventing the child from breathing. The child´s lungs need oxygen. In turn, oxygen is carried throughout the body by the blood stream. A lack of oxygen can quickly shut down the body´s systems. The heart may stop beating. The conscious child may become unconscious.


To learn specific CPR techniques, you must learn how to correctly clear a child´s or infant´s airway, breathe air into his or her lungs, and perform chest compression. These fundamental techniques will require some knowledge, skill, and practice. This report will offer knowledge that will assist you greatly when you acquire hands on training in CPR.


3.) Circulation = of the blood through the body is controlled by the pumping of the heart. If it stops, then pushing on the child´s chest, properly, may help to pump blood from the heart to the lungs, Brain, and other Vital Organs.


Airway Obstruction :

    A child may experience airway obstructions for any of several reasons. The most common cause of airway obstruction results from foreign objects, such as foods,  Toys, or other items caught in the child´s throat. Different steps must be taken depending on what obstructions is to be removed and whether or not the child is conscious. Read on Carefully.


    If a child suddenly chokes, gags, coughs, or wheezes, be alert for an object blocking the child´s airway. If there is blockage, a child may run to you or another adult for help, or an older child may clutch at his or her neck. So long as the child is coughing vigorously, the airway is only partially blocked. This may sound bad, but the obstruction may clear itself within seconds. While the child is coughing, Air is still reaching the child´s lungs. Continue to observe the child closely.


    If the child´s cough is very quite or the child makes high pitched noises while inhaling, and the child is obviously having great difficulty breathing, Then, you may need to treat the child more aggressively. Be alert to whether the child´s lips, Nails, and skin are turning blue. An affected infant may not be able to cough or cry. If his or her airway is completely blocked, then the child will be unable to make a sound. If the child is having great difficulty breathing, or is making no sound, and a foreign object may be blocking the airway, take immediate measures to remove the object.

Administering Chest Compression ( Dixie R. Galvez) 16085E Lancashire Dr. Loxahatchee Florida 33470 (Dixiergalvez@gmail.com)

  Administering Chest Compression: Whether administering chest compression to an infant, a child, or an adult, the challenges are to find the best position on the victim on which to apply pressure, and deciding how much pressure to apply.     :Infants: Imagine a line between the infant´s nipple´s. Focus on a spot in the center of that line, and a slight distance, perhaps an inch, below that line. Place 2 or 3 fingers on that spot, which should be higher on the chest than directly above the bottom of the sternum ( the flat fat bone connecting the ribs across the chest). Apply enough pressure to compress the infant´s chest by one half inch to one inch.     : Child: Feel the lower half of the child´s chest for the sternum. Place the heel of your hand on the sternum, but on a spot higher on the chest than directly above the bottom of the sternum. Apply enough pressure to compress the child´s chest by one inch to one and one half inches. In other words, each chest co...
