Chapter 256 First Aid: Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation



When the Rising Sun arrived, they saw two men on the sea, dragging another motionless man who seemed to be unconscious towards a ship.

A woman on the ship was anxiously looking around on the deck, her face filled with worry and helplessness.

After the unconscious man was pulled onto the boat, the two men who had rescued him climbed up as well and began administering first aid.

Unfortunately, their first aid methods were ineffective; they only knew how to pinch the philtrum and press the abdomen to induce vomiting.

A lot of seawater came out, but the person still didn't wake up.

Meanwhile, heart-wrenching cries of a woman echoed from the boat: "Ayi... wake up... my husband..."

All the surrounding boats moved closer and joined each other.

"Try turning him upside down, head to toe, and see if he can vomit out all the water in his stomach. Maybe then he'll wake up..."

"Or place it face down on your thighs and then pat its back..."

Everyone watched anxiously, offering suggestions all at once.

People living by the sea generally know some first aid basics, but they usually only know how to induce vomiting.

However, it seems that the man has stopped breathing and his heart has stopped beating.

At this point, the most important thing to do is not to induce vomiting, but to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

Although many people know about this first aid technique in later generations, very few people actually know how to use it, and its popularity is very low.

Moreover, in the countryside at that time, most people probably had never even heard of it, let alone knew how to use it.

Feng Ye was very anxious. Regardless of whether he knew the person or not, it was still a human life, and he couldn't just stand by and watch someone die.

By doing so, they were simply wasting time and delaying the opportunity for rescue.

As soon as the Rising Sun approached, he hurriedly jumped over, pushed through the crowd, and squeezed in.

Upon seeing the man's appearance, he was startled.

The man's face was swollen and bluish-purple, and his lips were cyanotic.

My heartbeat and breathing stopped.

He quickly said, "What you're doing is no use. He's stopped breathing. We need to perform CPR on him."

What is CPR?

One of the men involved in the emergency rescue asked, bewildered.

"I don't have time to explain right now."

Feng Ye looked at the woman and said, "Should I try to perform CPR on him? He's not breathing. He'll definitely die if we don't do CPR, but if we do, there might be a glimmer of hope."

"Yes, yes, yes, you should try it right away."

Hearing Feng Ye's words, the woman seemed to have grasped at the last straw and nodded hurriedly.

"I can't guarantee I can save him, in case... I hope you won't blame me."

Having seen too many videos of ingratitude in his previous life, Feng Ye was still a little afraid that he might be sued for not being saved.

Although people are generally more honest and simple nowadays, making it unlikely that such a thing could happen, there's always a chance.

After all, some women are simply unreasonable.

He didn't know what kind of person this woman was.

If she loses her mind after losing her husband, the pillar of the family, and insists that he made a mistake in the rescue and wasted time, then he will have no way to defend himself.

"It's not your fault, it's absolutely not your fault..."

The woman wept, her eyes brimming with tears, but she shook her head firmly, saying, "Just save him. No matter the outcome, our whole family will be grateful to you."

She understood in her heart that since the person was already dead, it was a hopeless situation.

At the very least, the term CPR sounds more reliable and professional.

“I know you. You’re called A-Ye, right? The biggest contributor to the expansion of the Mazu Temple. You can go ahead and do your job with peace of mind. If she dares to be ungrateful, I’ll scold her every time I see her.”

“Yes, I can vouch for you too. I not only cursed her, I cursed her whole family.”

“If she dares to do such a thing, she can forget about staying in Lujia Village. Our Lu family does not approve of such a daughter-in-law.”

"Don't even mention your Lu Family Village, we from Honglin Village, her maternal home, won't acknowledge her either..."

"..."

One by one, the people around him stood up and voiced their support for Feng Ye with their simple yet firm voices.

They were at their wits' end and could only pin their hopes on Feng Ye.

Upon hearing this, Feng Ye felt a warmth in his heart and was relieved.

He felt for a pulse in her neck, confirmed there was none, then checked her mouth and nose, and said to the woman:

"His heartbeat has stopped. When I call you, take a deep breath and blow air into his mouth."

"Remember to pinch your nose so that the air doesn't escape."

If it's a child or a young woman, he'll just do it himself.

But for men, forget it; he simply couldn't bring himself to do it.

Especially this man, whose teeth were all yellow, and there was even a green vegetable leaf stuck between his teeth.

At this time, poor oral hygiene is very common, and very few people have a set of crystal-clear white teeth.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Upon hearing this, the woman nodded hurriedly.

Without further delay, Feng Ye immediately tore open the man's clothes and began performing CPR, silently counting to 10.

The location is easy to find; it's in the middle of the line connecting the two nipples.

The method is to clasp your hands together, straighten your arms, keep your elbows straight, and use your body weight to press down vertically.

The compression depth should be at least 5 centimeters, and the chest should be allowed to fully recoil after each compression, but the palm should never leave the compression site.

The time for pressing and releasing should be approximately equal.

The chest compression rate is 100-120 times per minute, followed by 2 rescue breaths every 30 chest compressions.

He learned this CPR first aid knowledge after returning home to fish in his previous life.

Every year during the fishing moratorium, the county's maritime bureau organizes training sessions for fishermen on maritime rescue.

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation is one of them.

In his previous life, until he was reborn after falling into the sea, he had only worked on human models and never had the opportunity to do it in practice.

Unexpectedly, after starting over, I had the opportunity to use it on others.

Those around Feng Ye watched his actions, and although they didn't know the specific purpose, they didn't ask or disturb him, only whispering among themselves in speculation.

Feng Ye kept repeating one action. When Mo counted to 30, he stopped: "Blow air, blow twice in a row, and try to blow all the air you inhaled each time."

The woman dared not delay, so she quickly took a deep breath, pinched the man's nose with one hand, and blew air into his mouth.

After blowing once, she quickly took another breath and blew again in the same way.

After she finished blowing, Feng Ye started pressing again.

In no time, he was covered in sweat, from the heat and from exhaustion.

Chest compressions are very physically demanding.

He was actually very nervous, afraid that he might not be able to save him.

It was his first time practicing CPR, and he didn't want it to end in failure.
