What is ratio of chest compressions to respiration?

Answer 1

Well if you are counting compressions for an adult 5 to 1 for a child 10 to 1. That would be 5 compressions to 1 breath, 10 compressions to 1 breath. Some times the count is broken into groups, but the standards change every second year for some reason. I was trained to do adults 5~1 children 10~1 infants 15~1 Saint John's Ambulance 2005

Answer 2

It is 30 to 2 and this is for adults and child and infants

Adult 2-rescuer CPR 30:2; Child & Infant 15:2; compressions : breaths.

It used to be 5 compressions and one breath. Ask the American Red Cross or the American Heart Association if you need the currect method of CPR.

It's now 2 breaths to 30 compressions.
