Rescue breathing is given to a patient in respiratory arrest but still has a strong pulse. =Often, in my experience, it's infants that go into respiratory arrest rather than heart failure because their little hearts want to beat - they don't have the problems that adults do that puts strain on the heart like stress, obecity and cholesterol.==Rescue breathing for adults, (8 years and up) - 1 breath every 5 seconds.==Rescue breathing for children, (1 - 8 years) - 1 breath every 3 seconds.==Rescue breathing for infants, (1 - 12 months) - 1 puff every 3 seconds.=
