AHA CPR Guidelines 2010: Prioritizing Chest Compression

The American Heart Association (AHA) issued guidelines to perform CPR (Cardiac Pulmonary Resuscitation) version. Latest recommendations indicate that the helper should be more focus on chest compressions rather than artificial respiration through the mouth.

Previous guidelines (2005) emphasizes the handling of "ABC" (Airway, Breathing, Chest Compression) is to conduct the examination of the airway, perform artificial respiration through the mouth, then start chest compression. Latest Guide (2010) issued by the AHA put more emphasis on handling "CAB" (Chest Compression, Airway, Breathing), namely by first doing chest compressions, check airway and perform CPR. This guide also notes that artificial respiration by mouth may not be in fear of strangers and a lack of formal training. Actually, all these methods have the same goal, namely to make the blood flow and oxygen still circulate as soon as possible.
