There are some differences for compression depth for Adult and Child and Infant: For infants: 1/3 depth of chest, no more than 1.5 inches (4 cm) For a Child that would be about 1/3 depth of the chest, no more than 2 inches (5 cm) For adults: 2 inches but no more than 2.4 inches (5-6cm) For purposes of CPR, what is the classification for infant?

For infants and children with 2 rescuers, compression to ventilation ratio is 15:2 How often do you ventilate when an advanced airway when doing CPR? - correct answer.
