Child CPR
1. Ensure that the scene is safe; follow the check-call-care procedure.
2. Reposition the injured face-up (if needed), and take care of the neck, head and back.
3. Locate the position of breast bone and position yourself correctly. Begin giving 30 chest compressions right away, at a rate of a minimum of 100 compressions per minute.
4. Push 2 inches deep in adults and children when giving compressions.
5. Between chest compressions allow the chest to rise up completely, and avoid stopping the chest compressions.
6. Give 2 rescue breaths if not breathing, then check pulse (take no more than 10 seconds)
7. Shock pads should be used on clear skin (shave those parts if necessary), on the upper-right and lower left sides of the chest.
8. For children and infants- if pads are touching, place one pad in the front of the chest and one on the back of the chest.
