what rate should you administer breaths to the infant?

When administering breaths to an infant during CPR, you should provide 1 breath every 3 to 5 seconds, which translates to about 12 to 20 breaths per minute. Each breath should be delivered gently, ensuring the chest rises visibly. It’s important to maintain an open airway and avoid over-inflation. Always reassess the infant's condition frequently to determine if further interventions are needed.
