I have to do CPR training once per year, and almost every time they’ve changed the recommendations. I don’t even remember the current recommendations now.

It’s only changed once in about the past 15 years.

  Maybe in your country, but not in my country.

    Non US? Might be. For us it stayed the same for like a decade and then switched to the current like two years ago.

    Yes, Swedish. Also, for unrelated reasons I reacted a bit triggered in my previous reply and my canadian girlfriend said that I was being an arrogant european, and I’m sorry about that.

I got certified 6 months ago. They still (in the US) recommend 2 breaths every 30 compressions. For 2 people, one person manages the AED, and the other does CPR and you switch every 2 cycles, or whenever one person is too tired to continue.

Point is moot, you probably don’t have enough mass, or lung volume to compress the chest and inflate the lungs on a giraffe.
