Do you tilt head when performing CPR on baby?
Yes, when performing CPR on a baby, it is important to tilt the head back to open the airway.
Here are the steps for performing CPR on a baby:
1. Check for responsiveness. Gently shake the baby and shout, "Are you okay?" If the baby is unresponsive, begin CPR.
2. Start chest compressions. Place two fingers in the center of the baby's chest, just below the nipples. Push down 30 times at a rate of 100-120 compressions per minute.
3. Give rescue breaths. Pinch the baby's nose and cover their mouth with your mouth. Blow in until the chest rises. Give two rescue breaths.
4. Continue CPR until the baby starts breathing or emergency help arrives.
