You are correct; 30 chest compressions and 2 rescue breaths.
Cover the mouth AND nose of the infant with your mouth. Blow in a gentle breath. Remember to kept the baby's head at a neutral position as to not overstretch the trachea. Call for help if you have not already done so. Do the breaths with compressions just like an adult except with two fingers on the chest only.
Normal breathing
When delivering rescue breaths to an infant using a mask, the most important aspect is achieving a proper seal between the mask and the infant's face. This ensures that the breaths are effectively delivered into the airway rather than escaping around the edges. It's also crucial to use a gentle technique to avoid over-inflating the lungs and to monitor the infant’s chest rise to confirm adequate ventilation.
For an Adult, if there are no signs of life, immediately go to CPR. For an Infant or Child, if there is no breathing, but a pulse start rescue breathing; 1 breath every 3 seconds.
To give rescue breaths to an infant without a barrier device, first ensure the infant is on a flat, firm surface and assess for responsiveness. If the infant is unresponsive and not breathing, gently tilt their head back slightly to open the airway, and cover their mouth and nose with your mouth. Deliver two gentle breaths, each lasting about one second, watching for the chest to rise. Be careful not to provide too much air, as infants' lungs are small and can be easily overinflated.
Cover the infant's mouth and nose with your mouth and Each breath should last for 1 second.
It isn't, and this is in fact incorrect.The correct procedure for infants and children is to start with 5 rescue breaths before chest compressions are even given. Once the 5 rescue breaths have been given the normal ratio of chest compressions to rescue breaths should be given (30/2).It should also be noted that the depth should be changed to a third of the depth of an adult for child and infant casualties. And of course child-1 hand, infant-2 fingers.
