	Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR): First aid - MayoClinic.com
		Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a lifesaving technique useful in many emergencies, including heart attack or near drowning, in which someone's breathing or heartbeat has stopped.
		CPR involves a combination of mouth-to-mouth rescue breathing and chest compression that keeps oxygenated blood flowing to the brain and other vital organs until more definitive medical treatment can restore a normal heart rhythm.
		The procedure for giving CPR to a child age 1 through 8 is essentially the same as that for an adult.

	CPR
		CPR may be necessary for children during many different emergencies, including accidents, near-drowning, suffocation, poisoning, smoke inhalation, electrocution injuries, and suspected sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).
		CPR is most successful when administered as quickly as possible, but you must first determine if it's necessary.
		Because CPR is a skill that must be practiced, it's wise to repeat a course at least every 2 years to maintain your skills.

	Urban Legends Reference Pages: CPR Annie
		The face of the CPR training mannequin was modeled after the deceased daughter of the doctor who invented it.
		The modern CPR dummy was built in 1960 and sold under the name "Resusci Anne." In North America she has been christened "CPR Annie." Many a student of basic CPR has been taught to check if a patient is unconscious by gently shaking the doll and calling, "Annie, Annie, are you OK?"
		The legend collides with reality in that while the doctor behind the creation of CPR Annie did not model its face after that of his deceased daughter, he was indeed the father of a girl who died in childhood.

	AllRefer Health - CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation)
		CPR is an emergency lifesaving procedure that is performed when a person's own breathing or heartbeat have stopped, such as in cases of electric shock or drowning.
		CPR is a combination of rescue breathing, which provides oxygen to the victim's lungs, and chest compressions, which keep oxygenated blood circulating until an effective heartbeat and breathing can be restored.
		CPR techniques vary slightly depending on the age or size of the victim.

	What Do You Know About CPR?
		While you are waiting for the ambulance, you hastily recall the steps of CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) you were taught in a first-aid class you once took.
		Your chance of survival improves if someone gives you CPR four to six minutes after you collapse and you receive advanced cardiac life support, such as an electric shock to the heart provided by an automated external defibrillator (AED), within 10 to 12 minutes, according to the AHA.
		Studies show CPR is not performed on the majority of people who need lifesaving intervention and that bystanders are leery about attempting mouth-to-mouth ventilation for fear of contracting an illness or disease from the victim.

	Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) - NSC
		Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is the best training to have to try to help someone in an extreme situation when that person has stopped breathing and their circulation has stopped.
		CPR training also includes instruction in the skills necessary to properly care for a victim with an obstructed airway.
		But the details are important because, even when performed properly, CPR provides only 25 to 35 percent of the body's normal blood flow.

	CPR: A Real Lifesaver
		Cardio means "of the heart" and pulmonary means "of the lungs." Resuscitation is a medical word that means "to revive" — or bring back to life.
		Here's what takes place during CPR: A person giving CPR — called a rescuer — will give some breaths to someone who is not breathing on his or her own.
		The steps in CPR should be used whenever someone is not breathing and when the heart is not beating.

	Child CPR
		F.A.Q. According to the American Heart Association's guidelines Child CPR is administered to any victim under the age of 8.
		The first thing to remember about Child CPR is this: in children cardiac arrest is rarely caused by heart failure but rather by an injury such as poisoning, smoke inhalation, or head trauma, which causes the breathing to stop first.
		And since children are more resilient than adults statistics have shown that they tend to respond to CPR much better if administered as soon as possible.
