What to do if someone has no pulse but is breathing?

If someone has no pulse but is breathing, it is important to take immediate action to try to revive them and prevent further deterioration of their condition. Here are the steps you should follow:

Call for emergency medical assistance: Dial 911 or your local emergency number to get help as soon as possible.

Check for responsiveness: Gently tap the person and ask them to respond. If they don't respond, move on to the next step.

Start CPR: If the person has no pulse, start performing CPR immediately. CPR involves chest compressions and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation to circulate blood and oxygen in the body.

Use an AED: If available, use an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) to deliver an electric shock to the heart. AEDs are designed to be used by anyone, regardless of their medical training, and will guide you through the process with clear instructions.

Continue CPR: If an AED is not available, or if it does not revive the person, continue performing CPR until emergency medical personnel arrive.

It's important to note that CPR and AED course use should only be performed by someone who is trained and certified to do so. If you're not trained, wait for the arrival of emergency medical personnel and follow their instructions.

In conclusion, if someone has no pulse but is breathing, it is crucial to act quickly to try to revive them. With proper training, you can help save a life by performing CPR and using an AED if necessary.

Back to my original dangerous colors!

As soon as I get home, I’ve been shedding my uniform and returning to my true form as a pajama goblin.

Today was CPR class (again, I’ve taken it many times). This iteration was good. Then we went to the dispatch center, got our training syllabus, and took care of a few housekeeping things (schedules, time clock, logins, etc).

When I start on the job training, I’ll probably be on deep nights. Pros: 🤑 and I can take Jay to and from school. Cons: I am a diurnal human.

When I get a full time shift, it’ll probably be a day shift. Pros: I know and like the day lieutenants, I am a diurnal human. Cons: No shift differential, it’ll be hard to get Jay to and from school.

Anyway, after schedule happy fun time, it was time for online training modules, the ones that come with every job. Rival just took the tests over and over until he passed. I actually did the trainings, because I didn’t want Trainer to see me cutting corners.

Now I am dead and writing this from beyond the grave lol I am so tired

This was, no exaggeration, the longest Indigo League meeting that ever happened in the history of the universe, and Misty was in hell.

League season was upon them, which meant for the week preceding the day the new trainers all got their starters, each region’s league staff would get together and discuss changes for the new season, new rules, new members, etc. etc. etc.

Traditionally, referees or gym leaders or elites would give some manner of presentation or training, usually on safety or carbon emissions or something else so mind numbingly boring, Misty couldn’t help but tune it out and disassociate, and this year was no different.

All she wanted was to be at the gym getting things ready. But noooo, Lance had asked Koga to train them on blood borne pathogens, so she was stuck here listening to him drone on and on about first aid and proper blood cleanup methods instead.

Such a good use of her time.

Thankfully, her RotomPhone vibrated on the table in front of her, and she picked it up, eager for the distraction.

‘Wish u were here!!’ Ash wrote into the group chat of all his League staff former traveling companions from around the world, accompanied by a picture of him surrounded by all the members of the Alola League, who appeared to be having a fun cookout on the beach, all of them with plates full of big, fluffy pancakes and sipping on fancy glasses full of fruity drinks with little umbrellas.

That was how they were having their pre-league inservice?!?

��🖕’ she sent back. Ash immediately laughed at the message in reply.

‘Our champion would never. 😔’ Cilan wrote, which was almost immediately followed by a picture from Iris of her giving him a noogie across the table while Cilan laughed.

‘I TRIED!’ she wrote back. ‘I was told we had to ““take things seriously”” 🙄! Not all of us can party it up in Alola like a little kid!!’

Clement loved the picture but offered not much else, probably too busy in his own meeting to chime in. Misty remembered from over the weekend that he was the one in Kalos that had to present today. He had been stressed about getting his slideshow on energy efficiency done and they had all passed on their condolences. They’d all been there.

“For real tho, i wish u guys were here.” Ash texted, and Misty absolutely agreed; she wished she was there too, and not just for the pancakes and sunshine.

Absentmindedly, she clicked on the picture Ash had sent, zooming in on his cute, grinning face. The Alola Sun always did look great on that boy.

Man, if she were in Alola, she would be spending time with Ash and all his old classmates, resting, relaxing, and having fun. Maybe they could go mantine surfing again! And then she and Ash could walk along the beach together at sunset again, and watch fireworks together in the moonlight again…

Only maybe this time, their hands would brush oh so gently while they walked, and she would look him in his deep brown eyes, and they would lean in closer together and—

“—isty?”

Misty’s head shot up at the sound of her name, only to be met with the entire room of Kanto and Johto League employees staring right back. She flushed, clearing her throat. “I’m sorry, what was that?” she asked.

“I believe,” came Lance’s commanding, yet amused voice from—oh no—right behind her, “Koga wanted your expert opinion on CPR, in case of water-related accidents. That is, if you aren’t too…” he looked down at her phone and smirked, “busy?”

Blushing wildly now, she clicked off the phone, screen still full of Ash’s dumb, adorable face, and flipped it upside down for good measure. “O-of course,” she stuttered, jumping up and making her way to the front of the room to join a not-so-amused Koga.

As she shuffled to the front of the room, she caught Lance slipping his own phone out of his pocket and tapping away, the smallest hint of a grin on his face.

Ugh, Lance was such a gossip…

She was certain there was no way this was going to end well for her.

Meanwhile…

In Alola, Ash felt a little vibration in his pocket. He took out his RotomPhone and unlocked the screen, a message from Lance in the Champion group chat greeting him…

Food for thought: The SPR team is pretty eclectic as far as supernatural solutions go. They've got religious figures, people with psychic abilities, researchers. Any ghost they come across, they're pretty much set.

But forget supernatural causes for the hauntings a moment and go back to the first case where it was just a creaky building sinking into the earth. That can't be the only time that ever happened, so now I'm imagining the whole team has an interesting medley of random certifications and educational backgrounds just to make up for the various natural explanations they encounter.

Old pipework leaking water into the ground could also cause a building to sink. Maybe the soil the house was built on is just terrible at draining moisture. There could be a lot of reasons a house is sinking.

I'm imagining someone on Naru's payroll is a certified building inspector. (That takes roughly two semesters.)

Scratching noises and knocking sounds? Could be small animals or other pests, so someone also has a pest control certification? (Three months course.)

They have a lot of electrical equipment that could be a potential hazard. Somebody on the team could be a fire safety officer.

With the advent of the internet ('cause Ghost Hunt takes place in the 90s?) becoming more popular, someone on the team is now the IT person.

All of them probably have CPR and BLS training. Ayako probably just decided to become a certified trainer just to cut out the middle man. Right in the middle of an investigation, she just pulls out the dummy and workbooks and says, "All right, Mai and John get over here. Both of you are due to renew your CPR training."

Yasu probably went to law school just so he could be the company's attorney when the situation arose. (Also, great fallback plan. He would be the most aggravating lawyer ever.)

...

Just saying, if Mai or Yasu are moving on from the ghost hunting scene, they don't even need to put paranormal researcher on their resume.

"Miss, can you tell us why you have so many unrelated certifications on your CV?"

"...I had an...interesting career in my teens and twenties."

great allergy post btw!!

I think its easy to say good allergies aren’t that bad because they’re avoidable and the symptoms aren’t really chronic in the same sense that typical disabilities are. But my god the social effects! Having to bring your own food everywhere and be mindful about traveling and plane rides constantly is really draining after a while, especially with very common allergens like gluten or meat or egg. Like it’s crazy to me that most people can just eat whatever (like random food trucks in particular because damn I wish) because I’ve never gotten to do that

also the comorbidities! asthma alone accounts for a long term impact of allergen exposure.

people do not care to understand the severity of anaphylaxis and I've even been in first aid trainings where all they did was pass the Epi-Pen trainer around. a certain popular public charter [R.E.D.A.C.T.E.D] doesn't even mandate allergy certification through the first aid/cpr provider they choose. (a majority of first aid/cpr courses I've taken are phenomenal with allergy training fwiw)

ANYWAYS here are the signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis and what to do if you or someone is experiencing them!

If you or someone you know is experiencing anaphylaxis, call emergency services immediately. Do not delay care. If you're unsure, call anyways. Symptoms can be rapid or within 2 hours of exposure.

Do not delay care after administering epinephrine (Epi-Pen, Adrenaclick, Auvi-Q, etc), it is only temporary, hospital care is necessary.

Do not assume that someone with an allergy has an epinephrine injector, especially in places where you have to pay for healthcare.

If someone goes unresponsive and is not breathing during an allergic reaction, start CPR (adult | child+infant) immediately.

Image description: an infographic from the Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Connection Team titled "SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF ANAPHYLAXIS"

Anaphylaxis (an-a-fi-LAK-sis) is a serious allergic reaction that comes on quickly and has the potential to become life-threatening. The most common anaphylactic reactions are to foods, venom, medications, and latex. Anaphylaxis signs and symptoms that may occur alone or in any combination after exposure to an allergen include:

MOUTH: itching, tingling, swelling of the lips/tongue/palate (roof of the mouth)

THROAT: hoarseness, tightening of throat, difficulty swallowing, hacking cough, stridor (a loud, high-pitched sound when breathing in)

LUNGS: shortness of breath, wheezing, coughing, chest pain, tightness

GUT: abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea

CNS/BRAIN: anxiety, panic, sense of doom

EYES/NOSE: runny nose, stuffy nose, sneezing, watery red eyes, itchy eyes, swollen eyes SKIN: hives or other rash, redness/flushing, itching, swelling

CIRCULATION/HEART: chest pain, low blood pressure, weak pulse, shock, pale blue color, dizziness or fainting, lethargy (lack of energy)

Symptoms involving the throat, lungs, and circulation/heart are marked with asterisks, indicating immediate and potential life-threatening symptoms.

Consult with a board-certified allergist for an accurate diagnosis and management plan.

Although the majority of individuals experiencing anaphylaxis have skin symptoms, some of the most severe cases have no rash, hives, swelling

EPINEPHRINE is the first-line of treatment for anaphylaxis Antihistamines, inhalers, & other treatments should only be used as secondary treatment. Always carry two epinephrine auto-injectors at all times.

When you, or someone you know, begin to experience symptoms, CALL 9-1-1 IMMEDIATELY!

Early this year, my husband's work sent him to get his CPR recertification. Somehow, some lines got crossed and he ended up there on the day that they were certifying CPR trainers, instead. Since he was there anyway, he just went ahead and took the course.

When his work found out he was now certified to teach CPR, they had him set up classes for the people in his workstation; and when other workstations found out he could teach their people, they called him in, as well.

Today he came home and told me that one of the people he taught had used that training on his own daughter, who had cardiac problems and whose heart had given out. He had managed to keep her going until emergency services arrived, and she pulled through.

It's funny to think how a mistake in scheduling had kicked off a sequence of events that ended up saving someone's life.

Trick or treat!!! 😁

hello, dear! welcome to my humble abode! dig into this bowl to get some candy… ah! you’ve got a fanfiction line explanation! a rare gem indeed.

this excerpt is from if you need me, dear, i’m the same as i was:

He’s on the court before Sakusa is. He’s across the net before Argentina can celebrate their victory. He’s grabbing Oikawa’s shoulders tightly before anybody else can get to him. Iwaizumi stares into his estranged best friend’s glassy, confused, uncomprehending eyes. He’s shaking Tooru’s shoulders, desperate as he yells: “You are having a heart attack!” And Hajime is fifteen and three-quarters, learning emergency CPR for his new part-time job as a lifeguard. He thinks that it could come in useful. He thinks that saving people isn’t a job he would mind. And Hajime is sixteen, watching Tooru recover from his surgery, and he realizes he will never play professional volleyball. He wants to help people like Tooru forever — people who want to dedicate their whole life to a sport but have a body that strives to prevent their goal every step of the way. He can’t do that as a player on the court. And Hajime is seventeen, trying to convince Tooru to eat a sandwich even though he is adamantly insisting he isn’t hungry. He discovers sports medicine isn’t just about the physical ills and pains. To be a good athletic trainer, he has to see every aspect of a player’s well-being, and that includes their mental health. And Hajime is eighteen, standing alone in the airport and experiencing loss for the first time. In order for Oikawa to grow as an athlete, he has to cut away the weed strangling his roots. Hajime lets him without complaint. This is part of his new career, after all; if he helps athletes succeed, they would all, one day, leave his medical care. And Hajime is twenty-seven, losing his best friend for a second time at the end of the first set of chest compressions. At least three ribs have cracked under his pace and pressure. He pinches Tooru’s nose, pries his jaw open, and breathes air into his lungs twice. His ring and pinky finger automatically find his pulse point. Nothing. Seeing that no medical equipment has arrived, he starts the second set of chest compressions. Oikawa’s bones creak and give way under his desperation. He knows CPR like the back of his hand; if the ribs are breaking, that means it’s working. It doesn’t get rid of the panic and pain at the thought of how much damage he’s doing to Oikawa’s body. The paramedics are a second too late with their LUCAS device at the end of the last compression. He dives down for another round of mouth-to-mouth, recognizing, faintly yet viscerally at the same time, that Oikawa’s soft skin is pale and rapidly cooling. At the junction between his neck and jaw, Iwaizumi searches for a heartbeat. Breathe. Nothing. Breathe. Nothing.

this entire segment, as i intended, is meant to be read completely out of breath, gasping and choking on every single word. it’s meant to feel like the world is rushing and crumbling around you. it’s meant to be read at the speed of lightning, each word cackling and breaking. the periods in the paragraphs are merely suggestions; every paragraph starts with an and because the last sentence, the last paragraph never really ended.

it’s meant to be, in all intents and purposes, to be one continuous run-on sentence. unfortunately, that would be rather bad form for me as a writer. i don’t have the skill to pull it off just yet.

when you get to the “breathe. nothing. breathe. nothing.” it’s not supposed to be a gentle breathe. it’s supposed to be a gasp, panicked and hurting and desperate. it’s a cry, a sob of pain. medically, he’s doing a very measured recovery breath to force oikawa’s lungs into the action of breathing. mentally, it’s everything but measured. the “nothing” is crying. the actual sob with tears. nothing! he is screaming, knowing that his best friend is fucking dead, but he is saying nothing as he dives into another breath.

it should be read, more accurately, as: “gasp. please, please. don’t leave.”

and this all really stems from the line directly before this excerpt:

“Holy shit,” Iwaizumi whispers, all of the air leaving his lungs.

everything just rushed out of him. he has nothing left. and then, the buzzer sounds with this:

Sixteen to fourteen. Team Argentina wins Olympic gold.

that’s the last line of clarity before everything shatters. literally, the sound breaks with the buzzer as the entire world falls away and rushes at the same time.

this is probably my favorite part of the entire fic, one of my favorite things that i have ever written to date. i put a lot of care into this. everything i wrote came from the heart, and i hope how i intended it to be read translated well.

Does a certificate need to be obtained to provide CPR when in an emergency?

It's contingent on local laws. There are many states that are governed by "Good Samaritan" laws to protect those who only want to help in emergency situations. Being certified for CPR or the basics of First Aid would certainly help your legal defense in the absence of such laws.

If you're a current medical, rescue or police officer holding current CPR or First Aid certification you have the obligation to act when consent is granted or the patient is not responding.

In any circumstance where life is at risk, you must think about these important questions (quickly!) before you take any action

1.) are I qualified to enhance the odds of survival, without causing severe harm?

2) is I the most competent person to perform this task and three) do I risk the lives of myself or others by doing this? This is especially important when you don't have necessary materials like PPD's available on the premises.

>> Also Read: What tips would you offer to someone who has just received CPR certified?

Sometimes , people trying to aid may cause damage rather than benefit. If you've not properly established the necessity for CPR it could cause disruption to the proper rhythm of your heart. In many cases, their pulse can be difficult to detect! The pressure on the chest of someone with an active, but difficult to detect heartbeat can cause death. Basic ventilation at first is a good option, as described in the CPR instructional documents.

Each case is a conditional one that is why you should consider, "Could I live with myself if I didn't attempt to assist?" Most juries will not convict if they think they are in the best interest of the individual victim.

I've been thinking about Brittany from When I Win The World Ends. The story's always looking at credit and attribution, reflected glory, acting by proxy, mentoring, leadership, training. What does Brittany say about these things?

When Domingo has a heart attack, the doctor says Jinjiao's Lopunny saved his life by giving CPR, and Cely thanks Jinjiao for calling the ambulance, but I don't think anyone gives Brittany any credit. The doctor couldn't even remember her name. Brittany's the one with medical training, she knew what was happening and what to do, but she needed Lopunny to act as her arms (her own arms are too weak) so she gets overlooked.

In a lot of ways, Brittany is like a pokemon trainer but nobody recognises it. What does she do with other pokemon, like the Lopunny and Cely's team? In a medical crisis, she gives them commands so they know what to do. Just like a trainer gives pokemon commands in battle. What does she do with Domingo? She picks out food for him, to make him healthy, like a trainer caring for their pokemon.

But people don't see her as a leader, or a medical professional. They see her as a dumb animal (like Jinjiao, thinking her warning about Domingo's heart attack was begging for treats) or a sex object (Fiorella's barbs about her, and also, well. Come on. We were all thinking it. "Brittany, his post-divorce companion" has some pretty strong implications). She doesn't get recognition for what she does, which is a little sad.

Also of course cataracts would be a common health problem for Gardevoirs, with those huge anime eyes they have.

See, you thought I wouldn't make a meme... and I did. I am willing to break my own aesthetic. We're opening on September 22nd, and we're a totally serious admin team bringing a western crime rp. We'd love for a few more of our skeletons to be taken or to have some more original characters! Meet the skeletons I made a meme for:

The CPR — Their parents were ranchers in Paxton. Instead of a life prone to poverty, they chose to do something else and became the dirty image polisher that was then bought by Obsidian to help their public image. Paxton is in the crosshairs because of the CPR, and the reason why is all up to you.

The CMO — Every organization needs someone to help with the exclusive dealings... and that fall to her. She's a poisoned candied apple: delicious on the outside, terrible on the inside. She is well poised to make even the most reluctant candidates turn into donors.

The Imposter — The Imposter is a director who fully believes they're a rancher. They arrange for models to date horse trainers and then set up a little exhibit on the streets of New York during Fashion Week to showcase the "sport". They don't realize the harm they're doing, how they're pricing small trainers out of the market and driving up land cost... they don't realize they've been bought and paid for by Obsidian for their movie rights.
