For an 8-year-old during CPR, the recommended ratio is 1 rescue breath for every 30 chest compressions if you are performing hands-only CPR. If you are performing CPR with rescue breaths, the ratio is 2 rescue breaths followed by 30 compressions. Each rescue breath should last about 1 second and make the chest rise visibly. Always ensure that the airway is clear before delivering breaths.
For recussitation you shall give 2 breathes and check for a pulse to see if they need comprrssions and you alternate from breaths to compressions (pushing on the chest)
Once no breathing is confirmed, do not wait at all to give breaths.
CPR, or cardiopulmonary resuscitation, consists of three main components: chest compressions, airway management, and rescue breaths. The primary focus is on delivering effective chest compressions to maintain blood circulation, while airway management ensures that the airway is clear, and rescue breaths provide oxygen to the lungs. In modern CPR guidelines, especially for untrained bystanders, hands-only CPR emphasizes compressions without rescue breaths.
When two rescuers are preforming CPR on a child, the compression to breath ratio is 15:2. That is 15 compressions 1-1.5" deep at a rate of 100 compressions a min. Each rescue breath should last about one second and make the chest clearly rise. The cycle is then repeated, fifteen compressions and two breaths. The rescuers should change positions about every 2min or about 10 cycles.
Child 2 rescuer CPR is cycles of 15 compressions to 2 breaths.
Five initial rescue breaths are given to children and infants. This aids in oxygenating the blood to stimulate breathing prior to beginning chest compressions.
