Effective CPR ventilation requires more than just delivering breaths—it demands precision, discipline, and an understanding of proper limits. Research shows that even professional rescuers frequently hyperventilate patients during resuscitation, a mistake that can significantly reduce survival rates. This guide explores the critical importance of staying within proper ventilation limits during CPR and how correct technique can mean the difference between life and death. Understanding CPR Ventilation: The Foundation of Effective Resuscitation CPR ventilation involves delivering controlled breaths to a person experiencing cardiac arrest. This process supplies oxygen to vital organs when normal breathing has stopped. The technique requires careful attention to volume, rate, and timing to maximize effectiveness while minimizing complications. During cardiac arrest, the heart cannot pump blood effectively. This creates a dramatically different physiological environment than normal bre...
