When the victim of a traffic accident has had the heartbeats stopped (cardiac arrest), the cardiac massage must be performed, it is executed by the rhythmic pressing with the palms overlapped of the victim's chest, in the area of the heart.
Attention! Cardiac arrest is when the victim has no pulse, meaning the victim has had the heartbeats stopped, but still breathes. If the victim has no pulse and does not breathe either, this is cardio-respiratory arrest. In the case of cardio-respiratory arrest, besides cardiac massage, artificial respiration (mouth-to-mouth respiration) is also performed.
