You arrive at the scene of an accident and find someone who isn’t breathing normally. How many chest compressions should you give per minute?

Explanation: Placing two hands in the centre of the casualty's chest, you should push down 5-6 centimetres around twice per second (approx. 120 per minute). Chest compressions are only needed if the casualty isn't breathing normally.
