Donor should hold by the hose, receiver should hold the donor's wrist. This ensures that the receiver has a firm grip on the donor and also keeps the purge button clear. Two breaths each pass. Breaths should be counted using the fingers of the hand holding the reg so that the buddy can see when they are going to get the reg. Reg should be passed to the buddy - not pulled when the buddy thinks it is time... Dan. |

| I know that buddy breathing is not a taught skill and not recommended by some, but what is the correct technique. Should both the donor and receiver hold the reg by the hose, or should the reg always be held by the donor only? |
