Hands-Only CPR is an effective life saving technique in which one performs continuous chest compressions without mouth to mouth contact on the unconscious victim. This technique is best recommended for use on teens or adults that have suddenly collapsed. The hands-only technique greatly increases the chances of survival in emergencies that take place outside of a medical setting. Someone who is not confident or afraid they can not remember the steps they have learned in their CPR training are more likely to use Hands-Only CPR when they see someone collapse suddenly. A person may not be comfortable with mouth-to-mouth breathing, and Hands-Only CPR allows them to skip this step and just press on the chest to save another person's life.
