• Infant Compressions::
• For infants, single rescuers (whether lay rescuers or healthcare providers) should compress the sternum with 2 fingers or 2 thumbs placed just below the nipple line (mammary line).

For infants, if the rescuer is unable to achieve guideline-recommended depths (at least one third the diameter of the chest), it may be reasonable to use the heel of 1 hand.

• Rescue Breathing:
• For infants and children with a pulse but absent or inadequate respiratory effort, it is reasonable to give 1 breath every 2 to 3 seconds (20-30 breaths/min)

• Compression Rates:
• The recommended rate is 100 to 120 compressions per minute (as opposed to ‘at least’ 100 compressions).(unchanged from 2015)

• Compression Depth:
• For adolescents, a maximum compression depth not greater than 2.4 inches (6 cm) is recommended.
