QUESTION 092Not studied yet

In a safe place, an adult is unresponsive and only gasps occasionally. Should you wait because they are ‘still breathing’?

First aid • adultCompared with sources

Answer

No. Occasional gasps are not normal breathing. Call 112 immediately, start CPR and use an AED as soon as one is available.

Please note

This situation concerns an adult. Perform CPR according to the sequence you have learned and the emergency call operator's instructions.

A simple explanation

Unresponsiveness together with abnormal breathing suggests cardiac arrest. Do not wait for the gasps to stop completely; if you are unsure, the emergency call operator will help you decide and guide your actions.

REMEMBER

Unresponsive + abnormal breathing → CPR.

For an instructor and a small group: choose one C/CE freight transport topic in the Lithuania and EU context. Use your own devices, including a phone and a computer.

  1. 3 questions. In ‘Recall’ mode, first answer in your own words, then read the explanation and mark what needs more review.
  2. A lesson and a diagram. Discuss what they explain and which conditions matter.
  3. One scenario. Decide before revealing the solution. Explain the reasons for your chosen action.
  4. A few quiz questions. Read the explanation for each option. You can finish the quiz early; the remaining questions will be marked as unanswered.
  5. Discussion. Everyone names one useful point and one thing that needs correcting.

How can you share or suggest a correction?

You will find the question link and feedback field below this section. Lessons, diagrams and scenarios have their own ‘Copy link’ button. ‘Suggest a correction’ helps you prepare a note with the specific link and version label. Copy or download the text and pass it on for review.

Discuss: is it easy to find an answer and return to the question? Can you explain the reason and the limits of the rule's application? Which sentence is misleading? Flag any significant legal or safety uncertainty for checking before using the material.
