30:2
30 chest compression then 2 breaths for an adult and 15 chest compression and 1 breath for an infant or child.
The rate for CPR chest compressions is 100 per minute; adult, child, and infant.
Compress a child's chest 1 - 1 1/2 inches per compression.
Compress a child's chest 1 - 1 1/2 inches per compression.
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.
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.
4 to 5 cm. That is the prescribed chest compression depth in the St John first aid manual. This should be approximately 1/3 to 1/2 the depth of an adult chest. For a child, push down to approximately 1/3 of their chest.

NO
Chest compression depth for CPR is: Adult = 2 inches Child = 1 to 1 1/2 inches Infant: 1/2 to 1 inch.
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.
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.
