Artificial Respiration: 

1. During accidental conditions of any person such as gaseous toxicity or CO effect, electric shock etc, if breathing stops and heartbeats continue then human life can be saved by giving artificial respiration. 

2. Normally, the artificial respiration activates the respiratory centres, hence normal breathing can be restored. 

3. Many methods of artificial respiration are known but “Mouth to Mouth technique” is most effective.

 4. Following are the main steps for artificial respiration: 

  • Keep the patient on a hard bed in a straight position. Keep one hand on the head of the patient and another hand below the head, so respiratory passage gets open. 
  • Close the nose of the patient with the hand which is on the head of the patient and put a mouth on the patient’s mouth in such a way that airtight position forms. The hand below the head is to be remained as such so that neck remains stretched. 
  • Push air into the mouth of the patient forcefully about 12 times of tidal volume (500 ml). 
  • Open the nose and mouth of the patient and allow expiration.
