Summary Introduction
To review:
The meanings of biological terminologies “TV (tidal volume), VC (vital capacity) and ERV (expiratory reserve volume)” must be explained.
Introduction:
Lungs are vital organs, which play a considerable role in the respiratory system. The prime function of this organ is that it provides the site for the exchange of gases and also takes part in the respiration process. The volumes and the capacity of air entering the lungs can be measured.

Two responders arrive to a potential cardiac arrest. After verifying the scene is safe and checking for unresponsiveness, the second responder runs to activate EMS and get an AED. Meanwhile the first responder simultaneously checks the victim for breathing and a pulse, taking no more than 10 seconds to do so. The first: responder feels a pulse, but realizes the patient is not breathing. What should they do next? A) Immediately start high quality CPR, starting with chest compressions B) Monitor the victim and wait for EMS to arrive C) Provide rescue breaths, giving one breath every 5−6 seconds D) Provide rescue breaths, giving one breath every 10-12 secondsarrow_forward
