When you breathe in, you breathe in Oxygen Carbon Dioxide, and all that other stuff. But then when you breathe out. Yes you do breath out 4.50% Carbon Dioxide, But you also breathe out 16.3% Oxygen. So your giving them Oxygen, but not enough Carbon Dioxide to kill them. Ok heres the deal. When you breathe in, you breathe in Oxygen Carbon Dioxide, and all that other stuff.

We use the oxygen out of the air, but we don't use all of it, we actually breathe out quite a bit of oxygen. When doing CPR, the rescue breathing part is helping to get that oxygen that we exhale into the person who can't breathe on their own, plus trying to stimulate their own breathing mechanisms. The chest compressions part helps to pump the heart to circulate that oxygen that we just put in, particularly to the brain, and hoping that the heart starts back up.
