Just remember, the continuous chest compression method is for use in witnessed, unexpected collapse of an adult.

The best change in cpr, is that it is designed to allow people to be more willing to help. Great changes.

Thank you!!! I use to be Med. CPR trained, but never felt comfortable with having to remember the sequence. Much easier and it looks like more effective.

Great Post!!!! :thumbup:
