If you are alone and see a child suddenly collapse, you may be advised to call 999 first on speakerphone, then start CPR; if the arrest is likely to be due to hypoxia, guidance may suggest giving around one minute of CPR before leaving briefly to call for help. Dispatcher advice should guide you in real time.
