What Is CPR?

CPR is a first aid technique used to circulate blood and oxygenate the lungs when someone is unconscious, not breathing, and has no pulse. It involves giving chest compressions at a rate of 100-120 per minute and rescue breaths in a cycle until emergency services arrive or the person recovers. CPR should be performed until an ambulance arrives, the person regains a pulse or breathing, or the rescuer is no longer able to continue.
