*Compressions<br />

**Do everything possible to minimize compression interruption<br />
*Ventilation<br />

***Do not overventilate! (leads to decr venous return)<br />
**8-10 breaths per min when intubated<br />
<br />

*Ventilations<br />
**NO perfusing rhythm<br />
***15:2 ratio when do not have advanced airway (30:2 for 1-rescuer)<br />
****Do not overventilate! (leads to decr venous return)<br />
****Deliver breath with inspiratory time of 1s<br />
