While performing a primary assessment on an unresponsive adult who has been rescued from the water, you find that they have only occasional gasps, no pulse and no severe life- threatening bleeding. which of the following should you do next? a. immediately begin cpr, starting with chest compressions. b. give 5 abdominal thrusts. c. place the victim in the recovery position. d. give 2 ventilations and begin cpr.

The answer is D: give 2 ventilations and begin CPR.

Explanation:

Since the person was pulled from the water and is gasping, there should be approximately 2 ventilations before CPR begins.  When performing CPR, the chest should be compressed no more than 2.4 inches. If possible, a breathing barrier should be used, but if there is not one, it is okay to start CPR. Someone should call 911, and give them details about the drown so they can send rescue. Perform CPR until paramedics or police arrive or until the patient is breathing on their own.
