Steps of CPR. CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) is pushing down on a person's chest and breathing into his or her mouth. It is used in emergencies when someone's heart stops beating, or when he or she is not breathing normally (may be gasping for breath) or is not breathing at all.
Now you've got a good feel for how fast those compressions need to go. CPR is performed in what we call, cycles. One cycle of CPR includes 30 compressions, just like you've already practices, followed by two rescue breaths. Each breath should last about one second. Watch for the chest to rise with each breath. The cycle is then repeated: 30 compressions and two breaths; 30 compressions and two breaths.
