After a person has been intubated, chest compressions are no longer interrupted to do ventilations. Instead, chest compressions are done continuously, and ventilations are done simultaneously at a rate of one breath every 6 to 8 seconds. This is because now that the patient is intubated, (assuming placement of the tube has been confirmed) the airway is open, so the rescuers no longer have to stop compressions to open the airway and check for chest rise.
