Children and infants often experience cardiac arrest because of breathing problems. Rescue breaths are especially important.

Child CPR

If alone and the collapse was not witnessed:

• Give 5 cycles of 30 compressions and 2 breaths (about 2 minutes) before leaving to call 9-1-1.

Compressions:

• Use either the two-thumb encircling hands technique or, if you cannot encircle the chest, compress the sternum with the heel of one hand.
• Hand placement should be in the center of the chest just below the nipple line.
• Compress at least 2 inches deep (about 1/3 chest depth).
• Rate: 100–120 per minute.

Airway and breaths are the same as adults.

Infant CPR

Compressions:

• Use two fingers in the center of the chest just below the nipple line.
• Compress about 1½ inches (1/3 chest depth).

Airway:

• Tilt the head slightly.
• Do not over-tilt.

Breaths:

• Cover both the mouth and nose with your mouth.
