For lay CPR, no pulse check is required.

Infants in need of CPR must be positioned differently than adults in need of CPR. Also, circulation needs to be checked in a different position for infant CPR than for adult CPR (check the carotid artery instead of the brachial artery). Thus, it would be more helpful to attend a child-specific first aid course as well, instead of simply taking an adult-specific first aid course.

For BLS (not lay rescuer), rescue breathing (RB) is 10-12 breaths per minute for an adult, which is True. Lay rescuer, adult RB has been eliminated. If you mean during CPR, adult (30 compressions to 2 breaths), you will not get 10 breaths per minute during CPR which makes the statement false.
Adult CPR is needed for whenever someone needs aid in breathing. Therefore, it can be any age that needs it, as long as the person has a certification in CPR for legal reasons. The word "adult" refers to at least age 18, so adult CPR is CPR for those 18 and over only.
Adult, Child, Infant 1-rescuer CPR is 30 Compressions : 2 Breaths.
Do not stop CPR to check for signs of life in Adult CPR. Continue CPR until help (EMS) arrives or someone takes over.
An adult of course.
Signs of breathing difficulty in adult CPR are wheezing, irregular, shallow, or gasping breaths.
The determination of whether to perform adult or child CPR is primarily based on the age and size of the individual needing assistance. Generally, adults are considered to be individuals aged puberty and older, while children are typically younger than puberty. Guidelines recommend adapting the technique based on the size and needs of the person in need of CPR.
If it's an adult, you should immediatly before CPR. If its a child, you should do CPR for 5 minutes and then call. It's approximately 2 Minutes for the infant or child. ~Jason, just passed his FirstAid/CPR Taining.
During CPR the lungs and heart are stimulated.
