Rewatching Toy Story 'cause the kids are obsessed with it.
Does this scene remind anyone else of Resident Evil, or the old top-down horror games? 🤔

Eldest daughter had her 5th birthday yesterday.
Nothing gives me as much entertainment as showing her a picture of her at one day old, when she looked like a grumpy burrito 😁

I’ve also read a lot of scripts recently where someone has CPR and then, when their heart restarts, they’re remarkably chipper about, well, having died and had their chest brutalised!

Another reason CPR is exhausting is because of the depth you need to go. Recommendations in adults are 2 – 2.5 inches (5-6cm).
It’s essential to allow the chest to recoil again after a compression, otherwise the heart won’t be able to refill. (8)

CPR should be performed with interlocked fingers, straight arms, using the heel of the hand to compress over the lower part of the sternum (breastbone). The rate of CPR is recommended at 100-120 compressions per minute – ‘Stayin’ Alive’ is the classic tune that’s used! (6)

I’ll start with some basics. CPR should be started when there’s no discernible pulse, or certain rhythms (asystole, PEA, VF or pulseless VT). Before starting CPR, open the airway with a ‘head tilt, chin lift’. Rescue breaths at the start can be given in kids or after drowning. (5)

Welcome to MEDICAL MISSTEPS 2 – today I’ll be talking about CPR, when it’s done and more importantly, HOW it’s done.
Apologies for the time between my posts – both my children have had chickenpox (the youngest is currently extremely poxy!) so things have been busy! (1)
