Resuscitation protocols

Resuscitation protocols involve steps to revive someone experiencing life-threatening emergencies, like cardiac arrest or drowning. The most common is CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation), which includes chest compressions to keep blood flowing and rescue breaths to provide oxygen. Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) deliver electric shocks to restore a normal heartbeat. The process also involves calling emergency services immediately. Effective resuscitation depends on prompt action, correct technique, and early defibrillation. Protocols are designed to maximize survival chances by maintaining circulation and oxygen supply until professional medical help arrives.
