Question

1. when you are performing cpr on an unresponsive person whom you know is choking, what modification should you incorporate? you should attempt a jaw thrust instead of a head tilt - chin lift. you do not give breaths to an unresponsive choking victim. each time you open the airway, you look for the obstructing object. there are no modifications to cpr for an unresponsive choking victim.

Explanation:

When performing CPR on an unresponsive choking person, the jaw - thrust maneuver is preferred over the head - tilt chin - lift. The head - tilt chin - lift may not be effective or safe if there is an obstruction. The jaw - thrust helps to open the airway without potentially worsening the obstruction. Giving breaths is still part of CPR (so the option of not giving breaths is incorrect). Looking for the obstructing object each time the airway is opened is not a standard modification (and may delay compressions). And there are indeed modifications (so the option of no modifications is wrong).

Answer:

You should attempt a jaw thrust instead of a head tilt - chin lift.
