Reasons for Procedure
CPR is given to a child who is not breathing. Reasons for this may include:
- Trauma
- Sudden cardiac arrest
- Cerebrovascular accident (bleeding in the brain)
- Burns
- Choking
- Drowning
- Electrical shocks and lightning strikes
- Severe infection
- Drug overdose
- Excessive bleeding
- Hypothermia
The outcome will depend on the initial cause and how soon effective CPR was initiated. Many victims are unable to regain a normal heartbeat after it has stopped.
