CPR - Duchess - 03-01-2022
Do any of you know how to perform it?
I don't know if this is always said to those beginning to learn, but this is what I was told--"bones can be broken, when that happens you will hear and feel it".

Yup, I've used it on an old guy once. It's exhausting. You have to be really healthy to do it more than 15 min.

Part of my job responsibility. Unfortunately, too many people think they know how to do it, because they did it in high school, which was 20 years ago. It’s evolved infinitely since then. It’s not fatiguing at all, if you do it right. You just need to know how to rock this way…and have some tempo.
Well not being a lazy, fat fuck helps too
RE: CPR - Maggot - 03-02-2022
Of course.

I kind of know, but I wouldn't be real confident in doing it. I should have taken a class, but I never did. I know how to do the Heimlich maneuver and had to do it on my mom once. She's was only 80 pounds at the time and I was scared I'd hurt her. As she was choking she yelled at me to do it harder and after three times it popped out. She had Parkinsons disease and couldn't swallow right.

I once did that to a little kid who was choking on a piece of hard candy. I wasn't scared or upset in any way at the time, but later when I returned home I got mind fucked thinking of what if's and it reduced me to tears.

I used to be certified in both infant/child and adult cpr. Cracked bones are common. The goal is to squish the heart very, very briefly, let it bounce back and repeat. You have to push somewhat hard on the ribcage to do that, and adrenaline can sometimes make you push harder than you realize. It's easy to crack a rib that way.

I've taken classes, but not recently. I know it changes. I've been wanting to sign up for Wilderness First Response class. They are intense. I didn't want to do it before, but when the pandemic hit and hospitals were crowded or whatever-I thought it would be handy to know more so I could help myself and potentially others.

I'm pretty sure I could do it! I watched a lot of BAYWATCH!

I could totally do it too! I listen to the Bee Gee's song "Stayin' Alive all the time.

Glad to be out and about, & free of 2 days of poking & prodding, ekg's, monitoring, echo cardio, various testing. The air is much better now.

Hope you're good to go now. That stuff is not fun unless they have you on a morphine drip.

Health is wealth. I've heard that expression so much lately.

The older you get, the more you know that's true!!!
Wealth "without" Health, is Valueless!
RE: CPR - MirahM - 04-27-2022
Guess what I am doing today and next week?
Started the online classes today, the in person class will be next week.
RE: CPR - MirahM - 04-27-2022
The online classes are at my pace to do until next week. I had to take a break after the heart attack section. Too close to home, but it is a good reminder for me as it runs in my family and I need to be smart about how I take care of my body.
Also-now there is a section on opioid overdoese. Annoying and yes I am being judgemental. They talk about Naloxone-which can reverse the effects of an overdose-I have to go back to that section. It sounds awfully convienient for the pharmaceutical companies!!!!
RE: CPR - Duchess - 04-27-2022
Good for you! I hope you never have to use it.
RE: CPR - MirahM - 04-27-2022
Me too! Especially with the remote locations that I work. That would be scary. People get helicoptered out.
