Correct answer
- AA un lado del herido.To one side of the injured person.
Kneeling to one side of the injured person is the best position for cardiac massage. It gives proper access to the victim's chest and makes the movement needed for the compressions easier. Being at the side also lets you see the injured person's face and check whether there is any response or whether they need further help.
