Resüsitasyonu

Resüsitasyonu is a medical term referring to the process of reviving someone from unconsciousness or apparent death. It typically involves a combination of techniques aimed at restoring vital bodily functions, most notably breathing and circulation. The most common form of resuscitation is cardiopulmonary resuscitation, or CPR. CPR is usually performed when a person's heart has stopped beating or they are no longer breathing.

The fundamental steps of CPR involve chest compressions and rescue breaths. Chest compressions are applied to the center of the chest to manually pump blood throughout the body. Rescue breaths are delivered to provide oxygen to the lungs. The sequence and technique of these actions are standardized and taught through various training programs.

In addition to CPR, resuscitation may involve other interventions depending on the cause of the emergency. This can include the use of an automated external defibrillator (AED) to deliver an electrical shock to restart a heart rhythm, as well as medication and airway management. The goal of resuscitation is to maintain oxygen supply to the brain and other vital organs until professional medical help can arrive and provide definitive treatment.

Resuscitation is a critical emergency medical procedure that can be life-saving. Prompt action and proper technique are essential for maximizing the chances of survival and recovery. Training in basic life support and CPR is widely available and encouraged for the general public.
