04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there
how many do you have?
I'm pretty sure I got one in the first aid kit I got from St John's.
Although with resuscitation you really wanna start straight away, unless someone else gets it for you.
2011 GU8 ST 3.0 CRD, ARB Bullbar with IPF spotties, scrub bars and side steps, Snorkel, Dual Battery system, Waeco fridge, Turbo Timer, ARB Roof Rack with 5 IPF spotties across the front, Custom full Leather Bucket seats, DPchip, 3" Taipan exhaust, ARE Intercooler & scoop, Autron EGT/Boost and dual volt gauges, ARB front locker.
Actually a must to have for your own protection...but you have to know how to use it properly to make it seal or you are wasting your time..would be good if even just basic first aid was taught in a later stage of school
the one thing wrong with middle age ...is knowing you will grow out of it !

In all honesty it is better to just keep on with the chest compressions then stopping to try and provide breaths.
Compression's keep the blood flowing and by the time you have done 30 you have only started to build some blood pressure in the body so while you stop to ventilate you've just lost what you made.
Along with this is that when a person is lying on their back they naturally get 16% of oxygen through gravity where as when you breath for them we only exhale 23%. Minimal gain.
As a paramedic there is nothing better then turning up to some one in cardiac arrest and having good CPR done. Get your first aid cert guys!!
Remember, in the center of the chest, push down about 1/3 the depth at a rate of 100 per minute. If you go to fast your not letting the heart fill up with blood to be able to pump. (I also see this alot) If you can do compression to the beat of staying alive by the beegees. Ah Ah Ah Ah staying alive.
Great info meh, a paramedic mate told me something similar but not the bee gees timing bit - that's brilliant.
Hope to never need to put into practice.
Cheers
