Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Avant d'entreprendre un massage cardiaque externe, on peut tenter une manœuvre de «ressuscitation» souvent efficace si elle est faite instantanément: elle consiste à donner un violent coup sur la région précordiale. Cette manœuvre peut suffire à restaurer la circulation, rendant alors toutes les autres manœuvres inutiles. 2, record 1, French, - coup%20de%20poing%20pr%C3%A9cordial
