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.

∙ 8y agoThe capacity of the lungs is very much less in infants as compared to that of adults. So you do not use your chest muscles to blow the air in the mouth of the infant. Instead you use your chick muscles to blow air in the chest of the infant. You do not use the palm to give compression on the chest of the infant. You use the tip of the two to three fingers to give the chest compression. Chest should be compressed to about one third of the diameter of the chest. That is about one to one and half inches. These things needs better be demonstrated to you.
