Explanation:
The main focus of the BLS Primary Survey (see Figure 1) is early CPR and early defibrillation, if needed. For a patient in respiratory arrest, however, the focus is on breathing and airway issues. The process starts with assessing the patient and then perform an appropriate action.

Explanation:
BLS and ACLS Surveys
Does the patient look unconscious? If so, perform the BLS Survey.

The BLS Survey
The BLS Survey includes four steps:
Check for a response – Shout “Are you okay?!” Do not be afraid to yell. This is the first assessment in BLS and ACLS: Does the patient need help emergently? If they do not respond, they need help immediately. If they do respond, they still may need medical attention.
Call for help – Yell for help, telling others to call 911 and to bring an AED. Be authoritative and do not panic. It is always best to have help. It is rare for only one responder to be available during BLS. If you are truly alone, you may consider leaving the patient briefly so that you can get help.
Check circulation – In adults, the best place to check for a pulse is the carotid artery. In children, the brachial or femoral arteries are first choices. Do not check for a pulse for more than 10 seconds. If you have not felt a pulse within 10 seconds, assume that the patient has no pulse. Start chest compressions immediately.
Check rhythm – This step requires an AED. Follow all prompts from the AED. If the cardiac rhythm is shockable, then clear everyone from the patient and deliver a shock. If the cardiac rhythm is not shockable, continue high-quality CPR.
