Question 10 • Contemporary Health

Which is a main goal of CPR?

Answer
A
waking up a patient who is unresponsive
B
providing oxygen to the lungs through breathing
C
removing an object stuck in someone’s throat
D
reducing the swelling of the chest muscles

Explanation

A main goal of CPR is to help keep oxygen circulating to the brain and other vital organs until normal breathing and circulation can be restored. Rescue breaths provide oxygen to the lungs, so B is correct. CPR does not directly wake an unresponsive person, remove an object from the throat, or reduce muscle swelling.
