Conclusion
32.2 Training objectives — CPR/AED
CPR/AED — Introduction, Primary Approach, Life-threatening emergencies:
• Know the content and objectives of the training, the challenges of CPR and airway clearance
• Awareness of the importance of CPR, guidelines, causes of cardiac arrest, angina, stroke
• Quickly recognize the type of victim, validate effective breathing and apply the correct intervention techniques according to primary assessment
• Life-threatening emergencies: angina/chest pain, stroke, opioid overdose — recognize, interpret, intervene
Chest compressions, Ventilations, Defibrillation, Special cases:
• Proper compression techniques for adults, children and infants according to the latest national standards
• Proper ventilation techniques — mouth-to-mouth, pocket mask, face shield — for all victims
• Safe use of the AED, its risks and its particularities with infants
• Special cases: traumatic care, optional ventilations in cardiac arrest, legal responsibilities of the first responder
• Mobile application: assistance in real emergencies and during practice sessions
Demonstrations and practice — CPR adult, child, infant / AO:
• Master the complete CPR sequence with AED for adult, child and infant with 1 rescuer
• AO in adults, children, victims of different body types and infants — conscious or unconscious
First aid – Anaphylaxis:
• Definition of anaphylaxis, allergens, signs and symptoms, physiological reactions
• Effects of epinephrine, injection techniques, clinical protocol, how auto-injectors work
• Interpret a clinical situation and master a complete intervention on an anaphylactic victim

General prevention
- Recognize dangers and good habits to prevent trauma, fires, asthma attacks, allergic reactions, STIs
- Adopt habits to maintain good life hygiene
- Awareness of the importance of having a first aid kit
Infection prevention
- Functions of microbes, virus/bacteria differences, types of transmission
- Preventive actions, types of immunizations, steps to take in case of accidental contact with biological fluids
Childhood infection prevention
- Transmissions, incubation, contagiousness, duration of the main infections in childcare settings
- Treatments, preventions, control measures
- Identify infections leading to the exclusion of a child based on their health status
5Medical first aid
The approach and medical primary survey allows safe assessment of the scene, level of consciousness, respiratory and circulatory functions, interpretation of the level of orientation and guidance toward the correct protocols.
