American Training Association for CPR provide online CPR & First Aidtraining that is available to all Delaware residents, including those in Wilmington and Dover.
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a technique that manually pumps blood to deliver oxygen to the organs during a cardiac arrest when the heart is unable to do so on its own. When not beating, the heart fails to pump blood to the body's major organs, including the brain, kidneys, and liver. These organs need the oxygen contained in blood to survive, and without oxygen, severe brain damage will occur within four minutes, and the victim will die within ten minutes. Performing immediate CPR dramatically improves the chances of survival.
According to the American Heart Association’s (AHA) latest recommendations, there are two main types of CPR: compressions-only CPR, and CPR with rescue breathing. If a bystander finds a person who has collapsed or witnesses a cardiac arrest they should immediately check for responsiveness and a pulse. If neither are present, call 911 and begin CPR. The guidelines for CPR is:
Kneeling above the victim, rescuers should deliver rapid compressions to the center of the victim’s chest, using both hands to pump at least 2 inches down into the chest at a rate of 100 - 120 beats per minute, and allowing the chest to recoil between compressions. Continue, without taking breaks, until emergency medical personnel arrive on the scene and can take over.
If the victim is not breathing normally, rescuers should begin by performing 30 chest compressions, then tilting the head back and lifting the chin upwards to clear their airway. Next, rescuers should seal their mouth over the victim's and deliver one rescue breath, watching for the victim's chest to rise. If it does not inflate, give a second rescue breath. After giving two rescue breaths, resume chest compressions at a ratio of 30 compressions to 2 breaths. Continue delivering rescue breaths until the victim begins breathing normally or until emergency medical assistance can take over.
CPR manually pumps blood when the heart stops during a cardiac arrest, but it does not restart the heart. A victim requires the use of an AED if they do not have a pulse. An automated external defibrillator (AED) is used for starting a heart that has stopped beating. These devices are available for public use in areas like subway stations, libraries, airports, schools, sports arenas, parks, and shopping malls. The voice-automated device will guide the rescuer through each step of use. After using the AED, rescuers should confirm that the victim's pulse returns before they stop delivering chest compressions and they may continue rescue breathing if the victim is not breathing on their own.
Basic life support (BLS), CPR, and first aid certification classes are offered across Delaware, in locations throughout municipalities like Seaford and Newark. Courses are available in community centers, hospitals, and public health organizations. Online classes are an appealing option for busy professionals, for people who do not want to complete their training in-person, and for those who prefer an independent learning style.
First aid courses teach basics for preserving life and treating accidental injuries until further medical care is available. Some of the topics that a first aid course will cover are first responder protocols, wounds, bone fractures, poisoning, choking, head injuries, and burns. Individuals should note that free first aid classes will provide useful information and instruction but only nationally recognized AHA or Red Cross courses will give CPR and first aid certification to participants upon successful completion of an exam.
Drug overdoses occur when an individual consumes more than the recommended amount of any drug, whether it is a prescription, over-the-counter medication, or an illegal substance. Signs of a drug overdose include convulsions, vomiting, sweating, dilated pupils, nausea, difficulty breathing, erratic behavior, and unconsciousness. If a drug overdose is suspected, rescuers should call 911 and perform CPR if the victim does not have a pulse. Rescuers should reassure overdose victims of their safety and document the label of any drugs ingested to provide to emergency medical providers.
Individuals who wish to enhance their BLS and CPR skills are encouraged to take additional classes that focus on an area of specialization. Common areas of expertise are child CPR and CPR for infants, CPR for the health care provider, mental health first aid, and CPR for the professional rescuer.
CPR and first aid renewals are easy to complete through online courses that help keep individuals up to date in their knowledge so they can skillfully provide care in an emergency. Online classes let participants take refresher courses and certification exams quickly and conveniently. Recertification can also be completed in-person through community health organizations across Delaware. It is important for Individuals to renew their certification within the specified date on their CPR card, so there is no lapse where their credentials are invalid.
