This lesson discusses Adult Mouth-to-Mask Ventilation, which is the use of a mask to deliver breaths in one-rescuer CPR. The appropriate use is detailed step-by-step. These guidelines help to ensure CPR is administered properly in one-rescuer situations requiring the use of a ventilated mask.
"Breaths should be supplied using a pocket mask if it’s available.
First, give 30 high-quality chest compressions.
Next, seal the mask against the individual’s face by placing four fingers of one hand across the top of the mask and place the thumb of the other hand along the bottom edge of the mask.
Using the fingers of your hand on the bottom of the mask, open the airway using the head-tilt-chin-lift maneuver, unless you suspect that the individual may have a spine injury.
Finally, ventilate for over one second by squeezing the air bulb. As you watch the chest rise with each ventilation, make sure you are pressing firmly around the edges of the mask."
