mouth-to-mouth resuscitation
Emergency airway breathing
Mouth-to-mouth resuscitation is an emergency technique for restoring breathing in someone who has stopped.
The rescuer seals their mouth over the victim's and blows air into the lungs, repeating at regular intervals.
Often combined with chest compressions as CPR.
Also called mouth-to-mouth or the kiss of life.
