Question
Answer
Compression / Ventilation Ratio - Adult (without advanced airway)   1 or 2 rescuers – 30:2  
🗑
Compression / Ventilation Ratio - Child / Infant (without advanced airway)   1 rescuer – 30:2 2 or more rescuers – 15:2  
🗑
Compression / Ventilation Ratio - Adult/Child/Infant (with advanced airway)   Deliver continuous compressions at 100-120 per minute Deliver 1 breath every 6 seconds  
🗑
Compression / Ventilation Rate - Adult/Child/Infant   100-120 compressions per minute  
🗑
Compression Depth - Adult   At least 2 inches  
🗑
Compression Depth - Child   At least one-third of the chest diameter or about 2 inches  
🗑
Compression Depth - Infant   At least one-third of the chest diameter or about 1.25 inches  
🗑
Compression Hand Placement - Adult   Place 2 hands on the patient’s chest (at the sternum) about at nipple line  
🗑
Compression Hand Placement - Child   Place 2 hands on the patient’s chest at the sternum (If the child is very small, 1 hand might be appropriate)  
🗑
Compression Hand Placement - Infant   1 rescuer: Place 2 fingers in the center of the patient’s chest (support the head!) 2+ rescuers: Place hands around the patient’s chest and use 2 thumbs at the center of the patient’s chest  
🗑
Rescue Breathing Rate - Adult   1 breath every 5-6 seconds Volume - enough to see a chest raise and no more Avoid excessive ventilation  
🗑

🗑

🗑
Recognition of Cardiac Arrest - Adult/Child/Infant   collapsed lack of breathing no responsiveness no pulse found within 5-10 seconds  
🗑
Max interruptions during CPR (in secs)   Keep any interruptions in chest compressions under 10 seconds  
🗑
High Quality CPR Hint: there are 4   Chest Compression Fraction >80% Compression Rate of 100-120/min Compression Depth of at least 50 mm (2 inches) in adults and at least 1/3 the AP dimension of the chest in infants and children No excessive ventilation  
🗑
Chest Compression Fraction   The amount of time not performing compressions divided by the total time of compressions. Goal is >80% Must be >60%  
🗑
