The rate for CPR chest compressions is 100 per minute; adult, child, and infant.
30 chest compression then 2 breaths for an adult and 15 chest compression and 1 breath for an infant or child.
For both adult and child CPR with one rescuer, perform 30 compression to every 2 breaths. Also, you want to ensure that you are doing 100 repetitions per minute in both adult and child CPR. Perform reevaluations after every 2 minutes by checking the pulse of the victim and check for breathing.
Chest compressions work; for an adult compress the chest 1 1/2 to 2 inches, at a rate of 100/minute.
Compress the infant's chest about 1/2 to 1 inch for CPR chest compressions.
About 80 per minute should work. You should get a professional to show you how. edit: rate of compressions should always be about 100 per minute, regardless of age.
The compression rate for CPR should be the same as an adult. That is 100 chest compressions per minute. The ratio of compressions to breaths should stillbe 30:2. Just like an adult.
The recommended depth of chest compressions in adult CPR is 2 inches
Perform chest compressions for an infant at a rate of at least 100/minute.
Approximate chest compression depth for CPR: Adult - 1 1/2 to 2 inches Child - 1 to 1 1/2 inches Infant - 1/2 to 1 inches.
Chest compression depth for CPR is: Adult = 2 inches Child = 1 to 1 1/2 inches Infant: 1/2 to 1 inch.
Compression depth does not affect the recoil ability of the chest; compress 1/2 to 1 inch for infant, 1 to 1 1/2 inches child and 2 inches for an adult.
