The youngest age a person can learn and perform CPR will be based on their developmental progress and maturity. Some states and certifying agencies have minimum ages to be certified in CPR based on studies of ages required to learn the information and pass the skill and test requirements. Usually, these youngest ages range from 10 to 12 years old which would be a good estimate to answer your question.

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.
