Rescue breathing is typically used when a person is unconscious and not breathing adequately or at all, regardless of whether they have a pulse. If the person has a pulse but is not breathing, rescue breaths can help provide oxygen to their lungs. However, if there is no pulse, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) should be initiated, which includes chest compressions along with rescue breaths if trained to do so. Always prioritize calling emergency services in such situations.
