Conditions for performing CPR vary slightly from Adult to Children/Infant. Both are termed no signs of life. When no signs of life are present, CPR is initiated. Adult: Tip head & check for breathing & chest rising & falling (called look, listen, feel) for 10 seconds. If no signs of life are present, give 2 breaths and start performing CPR. Infant & Child: Same starting as an Adult; look listen & feel for breathing for 10 seconds. If no breathing, give 2 breaths. Then do a pulse / breathing check for 10 seconds. If no pulse and no breathing (signs of life), start performing CPR. CPR for Adult, Child, Infant is 30 compressions / 2 breaths. Always remember to have someone call EMS; even if you need to make the call yourself.
