In CPR, chest compressions should be performed at a rate of 100 to 120 compressions per minute, with a depth of about 2 to 2.4 inches (5 to 6 cm) for adults. Compressions should allow the chest to fully recoil between compressions, and rescuers should minimize interruptions during the process. If possible, aim for a compression-to-ventilation ratio of 30:2 for adults, and ensure that compressions are delivered in a straight, firm manner. For infants and children, adjustments in compression depth and technique may be necessary to suit their size.

When is compression only CPR recommended with no ventilations?

When the rescuer is unwilling or unable to do the ventilations."The Canadian Red Cross recognizes that compression-only CPR is an acceptable alternative for those who are unwilling, unable, untrained, or are no longer able to perform full CPR. In some cases, compression-only CPR is the preferred method for members of the public who witness an adult suddenly collapse. The issue has recently emerged based on research published in the journal Circulation."
