I know this isn't math but I just need help really quick and they don't have a topic to choose for this question. Hands-only CPR is better than A. No CPR B. Conventional COR C. an automated external defibrillator. (AED)

OpenStudy (ben00):

I don't know anything about CPR.

OpenStudy (suenahelpz):

I'm guessing A but not quite too sure.

OpenStudy (mathmate):

Not sure what a "COR" is, but compression only CPR cannot be better than an automated external defibrillator. With compression-only CPR, at least the brain gets blood circulated from the rest of the body which provides some oxygen.

OpenStudy (buckybarnes):

I meant CPR sorry

OpenStudy (buckybarnes):

@mathmate would it be A?

OpenStudy (mathmate):

Yes, because compression-only will not regenerate oxygen (almost) as a living person would, but then again, brain gets some oxygen, so it's "better than nothing". Actually it will maintain brain cells living for a longer period of time while waiting for the ambulance. There are also gadgets in the market to insulate volunteers from germs while doing mouth-to-mouth, but not all CPR graduates carry one around! lol
