BLOW
Tilt
the head back and listen for breathing.
If not breathing normally, pinch nose and cover the mouth
with yours and blow until you see the chest rise. Give
2 breaths. Each breath should take 1 seconds.

If
the victim is still not breathing
normally, coughing or moving, begin chest compressions.
Push down on the chest 11/2 to 2 inches 30 times right
between the nipples. Pump at the rate of 100/minute,
faster than once per second.
CONTINUE WITH 2 BREATHS AND 30 PUMPS UNTIL HELP ARRIVES
