@TiaTiaraymond @AlexisTopjian just announced a big change in the @HeartCPR Pediatric #CPR guidelines...ventilate 20-30 times per minute during CPR in children with an airway in place. Based, in part, on @CritCareMed publication by @SuttonB_ICUMD #PedsICU #CPRsaveslives
Take-home messages:
1. High-quality #CPR is the foundation of resuscitation. New data reaffirm the key components of high-quality CPR: adequate compression rate / depth, minimizing interruptions, allowing full chest recoil between compressions, & avoiding excessive ventilation.

2. A respiratory rate of 20 to 30 breaths per minute is new for infants and children who are (a) receiving CPR with an advanced airway in place or (b) receiving rescue breathing and have a pulse.
