Question 381 of 533

When the victim of a traffic accident has had their heartbeats stopped (cardiac arrest), the cardiac massage is performed:

A by rhythmic pressing with the overlapping palms on the victim's chest, at the level of the heart;
B by slapping the victim's cheeks;
C by rhythmic crossing of the victim's arms simultaneously with artificial respiration.

Explanation

When the victim of a traffic accident has had their heartbeats stopped (cardiac arrest), the cardiac massage must be performed, it is carried out by rhythmic pressing with the overlapping palms on the victim's chest, at the level of the heart.

Attention! Cardiac arrest is when the victim has no pulse, meaning the victim's heartbeats have stopped, but he or she still breathes. If the victim has no pulse and does not breathe either, this is a cardio-respiratory arrest. In the case of cardio-respiratory arrest, besides cardiac massage, artificial respiration (mouth-to-mouth breathing) is also performed.

The correct answer is: A
