The 2010 American Heart Association emphasis is on chest compressions, rather than breathing. In other words, a lay rescuer may not give any breaths at all concentrating instead on compressions.

For a trained lay rescuer, the compressions and breaths should be provided in a ratio of 30 compressions to 2 breaths.

Ventilations with advanced airway (HCP):

1 breath every 6-8 seconds (8-10 breaths/min)

Asynchronous with chest compressions

About 1 second per breath

Visible chest rise
