Gasps- Agonal Gasps - answer✔A person in cardiac arrest will not be breathing normally or only
gasping. Agonal gasps are frequently present in the first minutes after sudden caradic arrest. If
a person is gasping, it usually looks like he is drawing air in very quickly. He may open his mouth
and move his jaw, head, or neck. The gasp may sound like a snort, snore, or groan. These gasps
may appear forceful or weak. Sometime may pass between gasps because they often happen at
a slow rate. Gasping is not regular breathing or normal breathing. It is a sign or cardiac arrest in
someone who is unresponsive.

providing CPR can double or even triple the chances of survival.
