CPR is performed when there is no heart beat. If no circulation, start with 2 breathes and then 20 rapid chest compressions. Continue to do this until the victim recovers, or the Paramedics arrive, or you are too exhausted to continue.
A combination of breaths and chest compression cycles.
When no signs of life are noted (no breathing, no movement) start CPR.
You are correct; 30 chest compressions and 2 rescue breaths.
30 chest compression then 2 breaths for an adult and 15 chest compression and 1 breath for an infant or child.
Compress the chest about 1 1/2 inches per compression.
Perform Adult CPR by 30 chest compressions to 2 breaths.
Thirty compressions and two breaths per cycle.
The compression rate for CPR should be the same as an adult. That is 100 chest compressions per minute. The ratio of compressions to breaths should stillbe 30:2. Just like an adult.
2 person CPR: Cycles of 30 compressions / 2 breaths on an adult Cycles of 15 compressions / 2 breaths on an infant or child
After 5 cycles
Thirty compressions to two breaths each cycle.
No breaths, chest compression only with the rhythm of Staying alive.
