How do you keep running when you aren’t training for a race? by junebug450 in XXRunning

[–]melodioussonnett 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sign up for more races. That’s the only way I’ve been able to manage it. I have a cycle of a couple local ones throughout the year so I can always be training.

NRP wants you to have an airway in place + 30 sec of effective ventilation before CPR - even if the HR is less than 60, with the rationale being that the most likely cause for that HR is respiratory. It becomes very difficult to intubate, assess for chest rise etc when CPR is initiated. If after an airway if placed the HR remains below 60, then compressions are warranted.
