VENOMOUS INSECTS' STINGS, etc. Apply Weak Ammonia, Oil, Salt Water, or Iodine. STANDARD TECHNIQUE OF ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION 1. Lay the patient on his belly, one arm extended directly overhead, the other arm bent at elbow and with the face turned outward and resting on hand or forearm, so that the nose and mouth are free for breathing. 2. Kneel straddling the patient's thighs. Place the palms of the hands on the small of the back with fingers resting on the ribs, the little finger just touching the lowest rib, with the thumb and fingers in a natural position and the tips of the fingers just out of sight. 3. With the arms held straight, swing forward slowly, so that the weight of your body is gradually brought to bear upon the patient. The shoulder should be directly over the heel of the hand at the end of the forward swing. Do not bend your elbows. This operation should take about two seconds. 4. Now immediately swing backward so as to remove the pressure completely.
