CPR for a infant is the same as a adult now; 30 compressions to 2 breaths (compressions given at a rate of 100 compressions per min). Each cycle of 30 compressions / 2 breaths should take 24 seconds.

∙ 14y ago5 cycles of CPR should be given in 2 minutes; therefore 1 cycle in 24 seconds. Each breath will take 1 second, 1 second between breaths for victim exhalation, 1 second to go from chest to face & face to chest; total 6 seconds. So, you need to do 30 compressions in 18 seconds.

∙ 11y agoCPR guidelines state 30/2 (30 chest compressions followed by 2 rescue breaths) at a rate of 100-120 compressions per minute. So in theory if on average you are undertaking 2 chest compressions per second for 30 chest compressions then it should take 15 seconds plus the time for rescue breaths.
So around 17-20 seconds.
