Full form of acronym CPR is:

  • A.Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR)
  • B.Cardio Pulmonary Respiration (CPR)
  • C.Cardiac Pulse Rate (CPR)
  • D.Cardiac Pulse Resuscitation (CPR)

Answer: A

CPR stands for Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation.

CPR is the emergency procedure for a person whose heart has stopped: chest compressions keep blood flowing (cardio) and rescue breaths supply oxygen to the lungs (pulmonary), in order to revive (resuscitate) the person until advanced help arrives.

'Respiration' is wrong because the aim is resuscitation, not just breathing. 'Cardiac Pulse Rate' describes a measurement, not a procedure, and 'Cardiac Pulse Resuscitation' is not a recognised term.
