🔍 Key Concepts

• Artificial respiration is used when normal breathing has stopped or is inadequate • Many different medical emergencies can lead to respiratory arrest (not breathing) • Think about which listed conditions can interfere with or stop a person’s breathing

💭 Think About

• For each option, ask yourself: Can this condition cause a person to stop breathing or breathe so poorly that rescue breathing is needed? • Consider what happens to the lungs and nervous system in each situation: does it affect the ability to breathe on their own? • On board a vessel, would you be trained to give artificial respiration in only one of these emergencies, or in several different ones?

✅ Before You Answer

• For each choice, decide yes/no: could this ever require artificial respiration? • Recall that artificial respiration is for any casualty who is not breathing but has a pulse • Be sure you aren’t limiting artificial respiration only to classic drowning cases; think about all causes of respiratory arrest
