The technique known as CPR (Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation) has saved thousands of lives since it was invented and promoted several decades ago. Millions of people have gone through training classes with the Red Cross and other organizations. But CPR is now getting a facelift, and it no longer requires formal training. It is now called Continuous Chest Compression (CCC), and you do not need to do the mouth-to-mouth part. Just watch this video:
