Why do you perform chest compressions?
Chest compressions are performed during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to manually pump blood through the body when the heart is not able to do so effectively. This helps to maintain blood flow to vital organs, such as the brain, until more advanced medical help can arrive. The goal of chest compressions is to keep the person alive until their heart can be restarted or until emergency medical services can take over.

What are air compressions and air dilutions?
Air compressions refer to the process of increasing the pressure of air by reducing its volume. This is typically achieved using a mechanical device such as a compressor. Air dilution, on the other hand, refers to the process of reducing the concentration of a substance in the air by mixing it with a larger volume of clean air. This can be done to reduce the concentration of pollutants or to lower the concentration of a specific gas in a confined space. Both air compressions and air dilutions are important processes in various industrial, commercial, and environmental applications.

How do you perform chest compressions on a woman?
When performing chest compressions on a woman, the technique is the same as for a man. Place the heel of one hand on the center of the woman's chest, between the nipples. Place the other hand on top of the first hand and interlock the fingers. Keep your arms straight and position your shoulders directly above your hands. Press down firmly and quickly, allowing the chest to recoil completely between compressions. Remember to perform compressions at a rate of 100-120 per minute.

What happens if you perform chest compressions without reason?
Performing chest compressions without reason can cause harm to the person receiving them. Chest compressions can cause broken ribs, damage to internal organs, and other injuries if not done properly or if not needed. It is important to only perform chest compressions when the person is in cardiac arrest and not breathing, as part of CPR. Otherwise, it is crucial to assess the situation and provide the appropriate care based on the person's condition.

How to perform chest compressions on individuals with funnel chest?
