Respiratory Arrest

You have a pulse, but the patient is not breathing. This is called Respiratory Arrest!  

For this we give Rescue Breaths also called Ventilations. 

Adults receive one breath every 6 seconds.

Children & Infants receive one breath every 3 seconds.

According to your text books there is a range, but the seconds stated above goes across patient scenarios, whereby in some cases, patients may have an advanced airway (Intubated).  

Every 3 seconds for Child & Infants

Every 6 seconds for Adults
