Other forms of life support are ventilators and C-pap which breathe FOR a person. Some people are put on ventilators for various reasons and they are NOT considered life support. If a person is put on a ventilator to offer them a chance to get over a nasty pneumonia, this is not considered life support. It becomes life support when they cannot wean a person off a ventilator so they can breathe on their own.
âHowever, BLS is a generic term for any form of CPR. This is especially the case in other countries, like the UK. Basic life support refers to maintaining an open airway and supporting breathing and circulation without the use of equipment other than a protective device.â.
