🔍 Key Concepts

• CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) priorities – circulation, airway, breathing • The goal of CPR – maintaining blood flow to the brain and vital organs • The impact of time without circulation on brain damage and survival

💭 Think About

• Think about what factor you can control that has the biggest effect on a person’s chance of survival during cardiac arrest. • Ask yourself: which option directly supports keeping blood moving to the brain when the heart has stopped? • Consider which option becomes critical first, within the first few minutes of an arrest, before other treatments or equipment are available.

✅ Before You Answer

• Which choice addresses the immediate life‑threatening problem when the heart has stopped? • Which option is still possible to perform even if you have no equipment available? • Which factor is most affected in the first 3–4 minutes and cannot be reversed later if it’s delayed?
