The head of the water rescue team has just informed you that the divers have retrieved a young woman who fell through ice on a pond while walking her dog. The estimated submersion time is 22 minutes.

A) "Let's assess her first. If she does not have a pulse, then we will contact medical direction for orders to not resuscitate." B) "Our resuscitation will consist of CPR only.
