Answer:

Demonstration below. (For lodged throat)

Step-by-step explanation:

Place your whole arm underneath the child to the throat, make sure the baby is face down while you are doing this. Then put force on the back of the baby near the center of the back a couple of times until the baby cries.

(For unresponsive) Start CPR with 30 chest compressions before giving two rescue breaths. If you've previously received CPR training but you're not confident in your abilities, then just do chest compressions at a rate of 100 to 120 a minute.

These are my own instructions I hope this helps!

Answer:

1) Check for responsiveness. Shake or tap the child gently.

2) Give 30 chest compressions. Place the child on his or her back

3) Open the airway. Lift the chin and tilt the head back by pressing down on the forehead.

4) Look, listen, and feel for breathing. Put your ear close to the child’s mouth and nose, with your face pointed toward their chest.

5) Give 2 rescue breaths. Cover the child’s mouth with your mouth (tightly, creating a seal), and pinch the nose closed.
