NURSING ANM AND GNM

Detailed explanation-1: -Breathing stops. The person becomes unconscious. Without immediate treatment, sudden cardiac arrest can lead to death. Emergency treatment for sudden cardiac arrest includes cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and shocks to the heart with a device called an automated external defibrillator (AED).

Detailed explanation-2: -During cardiac arrest, the heart cannot pump blood to the rest of the body, including the brain and lungs. Death can happen in minutes without treatment. CPR uses chest compressions to mimic how the heart pumps. These compressions help keep blood flowing throughout the body.

Detailed explanation-3: -The heart has stopped beating If you cannot feel a pulse, begin performing CPR. If the heart isn’t pumping, oxygen is not getting to the rest of the body. Chest compressions keep blood flowing to the heart and brain until emergency responders can take over and try other methods of resuscitation.

Detailed explanation-4: -Doctors often call this a coma or being in a comatose state. Other changes in awareness can occur without becoming unconscious. These are called altered mental status or changed mental status. They include sudden confusion, disorientation, or stupor.

Detailed explanation-5: -Contact emergency services immediately if someone is unconscious. If the person is not breathing, begin CPR only after calling for help. It is especially important to seek help before performing CPR if the person: has lost bladder or bowel control.
