Indications and contraindications :
Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR ) should be performed immediately on any person who has become unconscious and is found to be pulse less anywhere .
In time Chest compression can be life saving and can help in the full recovery of the patient before the patient is shifted to near by hospital.
One can continue chest compression during transportation of the patient on a stable surface .
The above video shows how to deliver chest compression in an unconscious patient or when patient has no pulse .EVERY SECOND counts and to learn basic life support is very important for every one.
When facilities are available :-
. Assessment of cardiac electrical activity via rapid “rhythm strip” recording can provide a more detailed analysis of the type of cardiac arrest, as well as indicate additional treatment options.

Loss of effective cardiac activity is generally due to the spontaneous initiation of a non perfusing arrhythmia, sometimes referred to as a malignant arrhythmia. The most common non perfusing arrhythmias include the following:
- Ventricular fibrillation (VF)
- Pulseless ventricular tachycardia (VT)
- Pulseless electrical activity (PEA)
- Asystole
- Pulse less bradycardia
