30 compressions per 2 breaths for 1 rescuer adult/child/infant 15 compressions per 2 breaths for 2 rescuer child/infant
For 1 rescuer CPR for the 30 compressions count 1, 2, 3, ..., 30.
Establish unresponsiveness,call for help,check for effort of breathing,if no breathing,give two breaths,check pulse,then 30 chest compressions if no pulse
I assume this is a test question. Shame, shame. :) Unless the rescuer is trained with proper equipment, simply provide compressions. Do not stop for breaths as it is more effective without them.
Continuous effective CPR proper chest compressions and ventilations should include: 1. Open the airway properly (head tilt chin lift method unless head or back injury then use jaw thrust method) and to the correct angle (more angle for adults, less for a child and even less for an infant) 2. Ensure each breath makes the chest rise the proper amount (Adult 1 1/2 - 2 inches; Child 1 - 1 1/2 inches; Infant 1/2 - 1 inch) 3. Don't blow too hard or too fast when giving breaths (air will go into stomach) 4. For chest compressions ensure proper hand and body location 5. Ensure each compression is to the proper depth (Adult 1 1/2 - 2 inches; Child 1 - 1 1/2 inches; Infant 1/2 - 1 inch) 6. Don't jerk when giving compressions 7. Hands should not leave chest on the up motion of compressions 8. Count out loud when giving compressions to maintain rhythm
yes, you should allow the chest to move all the way back to perform proper compressions
During chest compressions, you should compress the chest at least 2 inches (5 cm) deep for adults, while allowing full recoil between compressions. For children, compressions should also be about 2 inches, and for infants, approximately 1.5 inches (4 cm). The compressions should be performed at a rate of 100 to 120 compressions per minute. Proper depth and rate are crucial for effective blood circulation during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
Yes; if you are doing compressions breaths should be given as well.
it is the dictum that if an infant is gaining proper weight according to its age then the food given is appropriate
Infant diapers should be changed every 2-3 hours to maintain proper hygiene and prevent diaper rash.
An infant is a young child. What to do if you have an infant would be to care for them in the proper mannor. This would involve feeding, bathing, loving, nurturing, and helping them in there developments. Not to mention much more things involved as they grow.
Proper feeding, proper clothing with care on hygiene and peaceful atmosphere.
