Red Cross Canada suggests that you should provide at least 100 beats per minute when giving CPR to any victim.
When performing compressions on child or infant casualties the depth of compressions should be a third of the depth of an adult, all whilst being at the same rate of 100-120 compressions per minute at a rate of 30/2.
Recommended depth of compressions for an infant victim is 1/2 to 1 inch.
When performing infant CPR, the depth of the compression should be 1/2 to 1 inch.
Perform chest compressions for an infant at a rate of at least 100/minute.
For infant CPR, give cycles of 15 compressions to 2 breaths; rate of compressions are at least 100 per minute.
Ratio of compressions to breaths for a toddler is 30 compressions to 2 breaths.
you give 30 compressions to 2 breaths
One must be careful when performing infant CPR. If the child is not breathing compressions are done between the nipples at a fast rate. The ration of compressions to breaths is 30:2. This should take approximately half a minute per cycle.
Perform Adult CPR by 30 chest compressions to 2 breaths.
The current ratio for lay persons (not health care providers) is 30 compressions: 2 breaths based on current Canadian standards. Your country may vary! If you happen to be a healthcare provider, you have choices.... but you should know that.
Infant, Child, Adult CPR all the same cycle/rate; 30 compressions, 2 breaths.
Compress the infant's chest about 1/2 to 1 inch for CPR chest compressions.
