The three answers for when responders should switch during CPR, if more than one responder is available and trained, are:
- Switch approximately every 2 minutes or after five cycles of 30 compressions and 2 breaths.
- Switch when the current responder shows signs of fatigue or tiredness.
- Switch during rhythm checks or AED analysis.
These guidelines ensure maintenance of high-quality chest compressions, prevent responder fatigue, and minimize interruptions, increasing the patient’s chance of survival.
