∙ 13y agoIn child CPR, chest compressions should be administered at 100 an hour-(the song 'Staying Alive' by the Bee Gees should set the tone). Give 2 breaths after 30 compressions. Remember that the breaths should resemble puffs in a infant, and short breaths in a child. Breathe only till you see the chest inflate, no further. y Otherwise, you can force air into the stomach (which can cause the child to vomit, and that can be forced into the lungs with subsequent breaths and that can cause pneumonia) or you can cause lung damage.

∙ 8y agoRescue breathing is only done when there is a palpable pulse at an adequate rate and the victim is either not breathing or not breathing adequately on their own. Once you have established this, perform one rescue breath every 2-3 seconds for an infant, giving just enough air to cause chest rise.
For further details, please take a pediatric CPR course.

Compressions on an infant should be performed either with you hands wrapped around the baby, pushing your thumbs into the lower half of the sternum, but not the very bottom of it, or with the baby lying flat on it's back, using your index and middle finger in the same location. Depth should be 1/3 the total thickness of the infant's chest, or about 1 1/2 inches. If alone, give 2 rescue breaths after every 30 compressions at a rate of 100 per minute, being sure to cover the infant's mouth AND nose with your mouth. If you have a second rescuer, have them give 2 rescue breaths after every 15 compressions. Have the 2nd rescuer call 911 before assisting you with CPR.

What does the compression rate mean?
The compression rate is the amount of compressions per a unit of time. The CPR rate is 100 compressions per minute; which means if you gave compressions straight through, no stopping, for 1 minute, you would have given 100 compressions. However, we give 30 compressions and then give 2 breaths, then back to compressions, so we average 75 actual compressions per minute, but we give the compressions at a rate of 100 per minute.
