If Someone Has Just Passed Out And Their Pulse Is Very Weak Should You Perform Cpr On Them?
There is more to consider…are they still breathing? Is their heartbeat irregular? Or just weak? I would start an IV first, get some fluids pumped in as I monitor their vitals. If the pulse stops, then yes, I would do CPR. But some people naturally have a weak pulse, some are weak only because they are dehydrated, etc. Basically, I would need to perform a thorough assessment before deciding whether or not CPR was appropriate.

No, you should only perform CPR when someone is not breathing, If they are breathing and unconscious performing CPR could be dangerous. You should stay with them keep them warm and you can place them in the recovery position.

No, call 911. You perform CPR only when the pulse is absent.

The first step is check that they are breathing. If not then the answer is yes.
