Before giving breaths to the adult, you should open their airway using the head-tilt/chin-lift technique to which position?
A. Slightly past-neutral
B. Neutral
C. Past-neutral
D. Significantly past-neutral
Answer (2)
To give breaths to an adult in CPR, you should open their airway using the head-tilt/chin-lift technique, positioning it slightly past-neutral. This position enhances airflow and minimizes airway obstruction. Avoid tilting the head too far back, as it can hinder effective ventilation. ;
The correct position for opening the airway using the head-tilt/chin-lift technique during CPR is slightly past-neutral . This positioning helps to align the airway to facilitate airflow while avoiding airway obstruction. Therefore, ensuring the head is tilted properly is crucial for effective ventilation during rescue breaths.
