Correct answer

  • CComprobar su respiración y su pulso.Check their breathing and pulse.

If, after a first check of the victim's consciousness, we find that they really are unconscious, we will find out whether they are breathing by putting our face close to their nose and watching their abdomen move. After that we will also check whether they have a pulse.
