CPR stands for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation.

- Compressions: Start immediate chest compressions — place the heel of your hand on the center of the chest and push hard and fast about 5–6 cm (2–2.4 in) deep at 100–120 compressions per minute, allowing full chest recoil (perform 30 compressions in each cycle).
- Airway: After compressions, open the airway using a head‑tilt/chin‑lift (or jaw‑thrust if spinal injury suspected) to align the airway for ventilation.
- Breathing: Give 2 rescue breaths, each about 1 second and enough to make the chest visibly rise; if breaths fail, reposition and try once more, but if you cannot ventilate or are untrained/unwilling, resume uninterrupted chest compressions.
