Treating Severe Airway Obstruction in an Infant - If the infant is responsive

A
  1. Infant is straddled over the rescuer arm face down (prone), the head lower than the trunk, and the head is supported by firmly holding the jaw.
  2. Deliver 5 back blows with the heel of the hand between the infant’s shoulder blades.
  3. Turn the infant over and apply 5 chest thrusts (heimlich maneuver like on an adult)
  4. Repeat the sequence until the obstruction is relieved or the infant becomes unresponsive.

  2. Place infant on a hard surface, begin CPR (no pulse check).
  3. Before attempting to ventilate, look for a foreign object in the mouth and remove it.
  4. Continue CPR for 5 cycles or about 2 minutes.
    - if alone, activate EMS system.
    - Return and continue CPR.
