The youngest age a person can learn and perform CPR will be based on their developmental progress and maturity. Some states and certifying agencies have minimum ages to be certified in CPR based on studies of ages required to learn the information and pass the skill and test requirements. Usually, these youngest ages range from 10 to 12 years old which would be a good estimate to answer your question.

How many breaths per second after you open the airway for unresponsive child or adult?

An adult who shows signs of life should NOT be given cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). CPR should only be given when all signs of life are absent. CPR should be given if the patient has the following: 1. Does not have a pulse. 2. Breathing is not present. 3. Is not moving. Common sense should be used when administering CPR. Patients who are incompatible with life (i.e. full decapitation) should not be administered CPR. Focus on other patients who may have a bigger chance of survival.
