Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Then call 911 or your local emergency number for help. If another person is there, have that person call for help while you give first aid. If the person becomes unconscious, start standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) with chest compressions and rescue breaths.

Detailed explanation-2: -To perform abdominal thrusts on an unconscious person, kneel over the person and place the heel of one hand on the person’s abdomen, slightly above the navel. Next, place your other hand on top of the first. Press into the abdomen with quick, upward thrusts.

Detailed explanation-3: -If a choking victim becomes unresponsive, give CPR starting with chest compressions. Look inside the mouth each time you open the mouth to give breaths and remove any objects seen.

Detailed explanation-4: -Do 30 chest compressions, open the person’s mouth to look for an object. If you see the object and it is loose, remove it. If the object is removed, but the person has no pulse, begin CPR with chest compressions. If you do not see an object, give two more rescue breaths.

Detailed explanation-5: -Perform a scene survey. Determine unresponsiveness. Open Airway. Start chest compressions (30 compressions). Open patient’s airway and give 1 ventilation. Attempt to ventilate. If air does not go in, continue CPR sequence of 30 compressions and 2 ventilations.
