Nope, not literally -- but I've seen it on TV that you shouldn't breath into their mouths anymore, just do the compressions -- is that right Joan? Karen |

It has been determined that compressions only will circulate enough oxygenated blood to effectively recover a victim. I think the guidelines for CPR were so intricate that it intimidated people to even try.... where a life may have been saved. Rescue breathing is still used in some cases..eg: drowning victims. |

Yes, I do. We had the opportunity to go through training at the school I teach at, so I took advantage of it. I can also use a defiblerator (not sure about that spelling) |
