Last night I made cupcakes with bacon bits in the batter and a few crumbles on top. Do these need to be refrigerated? If so, how long can they sit out? Of course I didn't think about this until after they were all done :)
Place two fingers at the tip of the breastbone. Place the heel of the other hand right above your fingers (on the side closest to the person's face). Use both hands to give chest compressions. Stack your other hand on top of the one that you just put in position. Lace the fingers of both hands together, and raise your fingers so they do not touch the chest. The compression rate is at least 100 compressions a minute. If you know CPR and are giving rescue breaths, give 30 compressions to 2 breaths.
Position your hands for the compressions. When performing CPR on a child the positioning of your hands is especially important, given that a child will be more fragile than an adult. Locate the child's sternum by moving two fingers to the bottom of the rib cage. Put your ear close to the victim's mouth and nose and listen carefully for any signs of life. 2  Watch for chest movement and feel for any breath on your cheek. 3  If there are no signs of life, place a breathing barrier (if available) over the victim's mouth.
