Mrs, John A. -Kramer, Regard the Edenton Pvty Chap ■r*delegates from the local ...j Countevsid# Ua wOTn ~~ Hardin Speaker At lions Meeting Dr. Richard Hardin presented a film and a brief talk at the Edenton Lions Club at its meet ing Monday evening, April 14. 1 Hie film showed the technique now favored for reviving victims of suffocation. This technique, which has been thoroughly test ed under medical laboratory techniques, consists of breathing into the victim’s mouth by di rect mouth-to-mouth contact or by the use of various apparatus for this purpose. This method is superior to the old method of pressing on the sides with hands since the old me ..hod does not do anything to unblock the throat when the tongue is act-i ing as an obstruction. Often' the old method forced too much air into lungs and damaged, them. The new method of breathing into a victim’s mouth has proved successful in reviving victims of drowning, electrocu-J tion, gas victims, and even those rendered unconscious by serious | icqidents. According to Dr. Hardin’s ex-' planalion and as pictured in the film, the rescuer holds the vic tim's head tilted backward,! pinches the nostrils and breathes air into the victim’s mouth, let ting the air escape, and con tinues the operation at the rate, of about 12 breaths per minute until the victim begins breath ing independently.
