To give mouth-to-mask breaths during CPR, first ensure the scene is safe, then position the victim supine on a firm surface. Open the airway using the head-tilt, chin-lift maneuver, and place the mask over the victim's mouth and nose, ensuring a good seal. Pinch the victim's nose, give two breaths lasting about 1 second each, watching for chest rise. Continue with chest compressions, alternating with breaths as needed, typically at a ratio of 30 compressions to 2 breaths.

Compare mouth-to-mask and bag-valve-mask methods?
There is not much to compare for the two as a BVM uses a 2600 ML bag of air squeezed to provide air. A BVM can also be hooked up to O2 and deliver 90% inspired Oxygen. You can see the chest rise in BVM whereas you feel in more in mouth to mask. When giving breaths, you do it over 6-8 seconds which is the same for a BVM. You use either the head tilt chin lift or jaw thrust manuver for both as well.
Can you get staph by giving CPR to save a life if they have staph?

When doing artificial respiration on a small child should you breathe in only through the Nose Mouth Both or Neither?
depending on how small the child is and what you are giving the respirations with will dictate how you will be doing it. if you are giving mouth to mouth it is up to you really as long as you get adequate chest rise and fall air is going in so it does not really matter which path it takes. On a bag valve mask the mask is designed to fit over the mouth and nose. so either way it can and does go through the nose and there is no harm in that. hope this helps you!
