New CPR guidelines advise chest compressions and rescue breaths for drowning victims presumed in cardiac arrest.
New guidelines from the American Heart Association and American Academy of Pediatrics stress the importance of CPR with rescue breaths for drowning victims, who should be presumed in cardiac arrest if they show no signs of breathing or consciousness.
The guidelines recommend performing chest compressions even if rescue breaths cannot be given.
Use of AEDs is also advised in public aquatic areas, and all resuscitated victims should be taken to a hospital.
