“A cardiac massage must be early, to hope to increase the chances of survival by 4 to 40%”, explains Chief Warrant Officer Duchesne Henri-Claude. Trainer at the SDIS13 training center, he wants to raise awareness of the actions to remember to save victims of cardiac arrest.
If the victim is unconscious and not breathing, you must act quickly. “On the lower part of the rib cage, place the heel of the hand. With the arms straight and locked, press 5cm at a frequency of 100 to 120 per minute”, explains the trainer.
After 30 pressure strokes, it is essential to insufflate, that is to say, to place your mouth on the victim’s mouth to give them oxygen. “At the same time, of course, it is important to notify emergency services, then to continue these actions until they arrive.” The warrant officer recalls that defibrillators are now present in practically all public places.
