Do you start CPR for a nose bleed?

CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) is administered to a person who is not breathing properly or whose heart is not beating normally. It is a valuable skill that can save lives. A nose bleed is a common medical condition that involves the oozing of blood from the interior lining of the nose. It is different from cardiac or respiratory problems that CPR addresses. Therefore, CPR is not the appropriate measure to take in response to a nose bleed.
