The "C" in "C-A-B" stands for compressions. The American Heart Association recommends pushing down on the center of the victim's chest 30 times, at a rate of 100 beats per minute. The chest should be pushed down two inches for adults and children, and 1.5 inches for infants. Do this until a CPR-trained professional arrives.
The "A" in "C-A-B" stands for airway. If you have been trained in CPR, you can open the victim's airway by tilting the victim's chin up. Otherwise, continue to perform chest compressions until help arrives.
The "B" in "C-A-B" stands for breathing. Pinch the victim's nose so that no air is coming out. Breathe into the victim's mouth twice. Each breath should last no longer than one second. Make sure you can see the chest rise with each breath you give the victim. However, if you have never been trained in CPR, continue to administer hands-only CPR.
Repeat sets of 30 compressions and two breaths until help arrives.
