As soon as possible feel with your fingers in the patient's mouth and throat and remove any foreign body (tobacco, false teeth, etc.). It the mouth is tljfet shut, pay no more attention to it until later. Do not stop to loosen tbe patient's clothing, but Immediately begin actual resuscitation. Every moment is precious. Proceed as follows: (1) Lay the patient on his belly, one arm extended directly overhead, the other arm bent at elbow and with the face turned outward and resting on hand or forearm, so that the nose and mouth are free for breathing. (See Figure 1.) (2) Kneel, straddling the patient's thighs, with your knees placed at such • distance from the hip bones as will •How you to assume the position shown in Figure 1. Place the palms of the hands on the •mall of the back with fingers resting on the ribs, the little finger just touching the lowest rib, with the tfeamb Titm l niw s and lingers in n natural position, and the tips of the fingers just out of sight (See Figure 1.) (8) With arms held straight, swing forward slowly so that the weight of 70«r body Is gradually brought to bear upon the patient. The shoulder should be directly over the heel of the hand at the end of the forward swing. (See Figure 2.) Do not bend your elbows. This operation should take about two seconds. / (4) Now immediately swing back* ward so as to completely remove the pressure. (See Figt;ce 3.) (5) After two secoads, swing for* ward again. Thus repeat deliberately twelve to fifteen times a minute the double movement of compression and release, a complete respiration In four or five seconds. (6) Continue artificial respiration without interruption until natural breathing is restored, if necessary, four hours or longer, or until a physician declares the patient Is dead. (7) As soon as this artificial respiration has been started and while It is being continued, an assistant should loosen any tight clothing about the patient's neck, chest or waist Keep the patient warm. Do not give any liquids whatever by mouth until the patient is fully conscious. (8) To avoid Strain on the heart when\ the patient revives, he should be kept lying down and not allowed to stand or sit up. If the doctor has not arrived by the tinte the patient has revived, he should be given some stimulant, such as one teaspoonful of aromatic spirits of ammonia in a small glass of water, or a hot drink of coffee or tea, etc. The patient should be kept warm. (9) Resuscitation should be carried on at the nearest possible point to where the patient received his in* juries. He should not be moved from this point until he is breathing nor* mally of his own volition and then moved only in a lying position. Should It be necessary, due to extreme weather conditions, etc., to move the patient before he is breathing normally, resuscitation should be carried on dcr* ing the time that he Is being moved. (10) A brief return of natural respiration is not a certain Indication resuscitation should cease. Not infrequently the patient, after a temporary recovery of respiration, stops breathing again. The patient must be watched, and If natural breathing stops, artificial respiration should be resumed at once. (11) In carrying out resuscitation tt may be necessary to change the operator. This change must be made without losing the rhythm of respiration.
