For a newborn baby is from 30 to 60 breaths per minute.
A child age 1 to 5 will have a respiratory rate of 20 to 30 breaths per minute.
6 to 12, the breathing rate continues to decrease to about one breath every 3 to 5 seconds, or 12 to 20 breaths per minute.
For infant CPR, give cycles of 15 compressions to 2 breaths; rate of compressions are at least 100 per minute.
The rate for CPR chest compressions is 100 per minute; adult, child, and infant.
you give 30 compressions to 2 breaths
Thirty compressions and two breaths per cycle.
When performing chest compressions on an infant with one rescuer, the rescuer should use two fingers placed just below the nipple line in the center of the chest. Compressions should be at a depth of about 1.5 inches and at a rate of 100 to 120 compressions per minute, allowing complete recoil between compressions. After every 30 compressions, the rescuer should give 2 rescue breaths. It's essential to ensure the infant is on a firm, flat surface during this process.
The rate is 30 compressions at a rate of 100/minute.
You will give about 75 compressions in a minute.
30 compressions at a rate of 100 compressions per minute. Then give 2 mouth-to-mouth breaths and repeat. Continue until help arrives.
You are correct; 30 chest compressions and 2 rescue breaths.
Compressions on an infant should be performed either with you hands wrapped around the baby, pushing your thumbs into the lower half of the sternum, but not the very bottom of it, or with the baby lying flat on it's back, using your index and middle finger in the same location. Depth should be 1/3 the total thickness of the infant's chest, or about 1 1/2 inches. If alone, give 2 rescue breaths after every 30 compressions at a rate of 100 per minute, being sure to cover the infant's mouth AND nose with your mouth. If you have a second rescuer, have them give 2 rescue breaths after every 15 compressions. Have the 2nd rescuer call 911 before assisting you with CPR.
Generally, you need to give compressions at a rate of 100 per minute to fully circulate the blood. That's depressing 1/3 of the depth of the chest for adults, and 1/4 of the chest depth for infants and children.
