🔍 Key Concepts

• Airway management during CPR and why a clear airway is critical • Risk of aspiration (stomach contents entering the lungs) when a victim vomits • Standard CPR sequence: airway, breathing, circulation (ABC) or CAB and how to restore an effective airway quickly

💭 Think About

• Which action most quickly restores a clear, open airway so that breaths and compressions are effective again? • What could happen if you continue giving breaths while the victim is vomiting or has vomit in their mouth or throat? • Among the choices, which one both protects the airway from further contamination and allows you to resume CPR as soon as safely possible?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options actually clear the airway versus those that leave vomit where it is • Ask whether any option increases the chance of aspiration or pushing vomit deeper into the airway • Confirm which step is recommended in basic first aid/CPR training when a patient vomits: reposition, clear the mouth, then resume CPR
